Are there any 1sts with a print run of 100,000 copies worth
anything (more than $10-$15...)?

I've encountered two relatively recent SF paperbacks that
consistently commands value over $10.00:

Tanith Lee's _Red as Blood_(1981)
Jonathan Carroll's _Outside the Dog Museum_(1993)

But perhaps -- aside from their authors' semi-cult status -- the
print runs of these titles were substantially less than 100K.
