The title of the book is Store Entniger.I'm not for sure what language its written in.Its a hard back copy.The publishing company is Gyldendalske Boghhandel Nordisk Forlag.It was printed in Denmark.It also has a photo of Charles Dickens on the inside dated 1812 - 1870

The stamp on the back (bottom-hard to see) says that it's "Series A, Number 1158 out of 2500"

Dont know much more then that. The rocker is in absolutely amazing condition..doen't really look like it has ever been used to be honest. It was passed down from an old woman who had it passed down from her mother.

It is a very beautiful piece...looks to be made out of a dark cherry wood of some sort.

 This looks old to me but I have no idea what is is worth.   Is is worth getting a proffesional appraisal?

Thanks!
