Dear Ruth,
this publication is obviously unique and one persons thesis.
As there it is only likely one copy its value would be hard to determine and would be determined by the rarity of its contents, especially if there are photographs and maps. It would be interesting to know more about the contents, numbers of photos and maps. The value of such a publication can vary tremendously according to the criteria above and would be of interest to many collectors and institutions. Ultimately a good book auctioneers would be able to best advise you.

I looked up Tsinghua University on Wikipedia:

�This is a university in Beijing, People's Republic of China. It is regarded as one of the best and most selective universities in China. Established in 1911 as a preparatory school for Chinese graduates pursuing further studies at American universities, the school expanded and offered four-year undergraduate and post-graduate programs in 1925. The preparatory program continued until 1949.�

Dear Ruth,
why don't you post the images on this web site?
It would be of interest to many people.
Auctioneer would depend on where you are located, but I think that you might have to do a little research yourself to find one of good repute.
Kind regards
Mehmet

There are several auctioneers in the bay area that would be able to help you. Take a look at the Asian Art Museum's website for a list.
