Subject: [Leica] [Off Topic] Appraising/selling old camera gear?

A friend of mine has a camera and etc... that he inherited from his
father.  I think that it's on the order of 50 years old.  He lives in
the middle of no where (State College, Pennsylvania.  Now I'm in for
it...), and doesn't have easy access to dealers.

Can anyone:

  a) make a suggestion about how to go about setting a value for the
     camera and selling it?

  b) recommend a dealer of old cameras?

I tried to get him to describe it to me, but didn't much more than it
seems to be in nice shape.
