Tubs of bark cloth

I have inherited several containers of bark cloth that my late brother-in-law collected. There are piece goods and draperys that I think he was going to use for decorator pillows etc. I do not have any interest in the fabric and wondered how to determine its value as well as sell it.

I would appreciate it if anyone can steer me in the right direction.
