If you are in Scotland, my answer differs from in US. Overseas, there would be a premium for such a run in Society slipcases. Upwards of $1000 US

Domestically, the issues unless absolutely pristine have comparatively little value on market, slipcases providing the chief value. Anywhere from $150-$350, in part dependent upon issues' condition. If pristine, and the right buyer, it could reach $350-$500. If just good reading copies, likely on the low end of $150. If shipping involved, it truly would not be feasible as such could easily double the price

For insurance or tax-right-off value, replacem,ent on demand (rather than waiting for a bargain) would be about $20/year or $800-$1000 (again, mainly because of the slipcases)

Hope it helps and does not overly disappoint expectations of value
Happy collecting
