I think she is honoring it by adding a bit of color. It's not like she claimed the original print. I don’t think this is vandalism. I think she is honoring it by adding a bit of color.

Let's hope that's the case here! usually print colourists use water-based paint that is “reversible”..so through washing it should be possible to restore the print to its original black and white state.

A lot of the time you can get an idea from Ebay, but books like yours and other really valuable ones are harder to find, and probably wont show up on Ebay. This site was recommended to me by an appraiser http://www.pbagalleries.com/bibliobot/ Can give you an idea, and is also a professional auctioning site you could contact.
