I wonder if there's a person or agency who offers valuation info for magazine owners who want to dispose of them - and make some money at the same time.
Like the Antiques Roadshow thing...but for magazines.
OK - another memory just popped into my head.....
Back in the early 80's, the town I live in happened to be included in the world surfing pro tour. Probably because we have a consistent break here and the main judge from the USA was from here. So our contest was coming up and I happened to mention to my friend, the USA judge, I have accommodations at my house if anyone coming into town needs any. So both the Australia and South African judges stayed at my place along with the head of competition...."Fatty Al" Hunt - an Australian.
What the heck does this have to do with the thread topic, you say?
Well "Fatty Al" was a surf mag collector - and had the biggest collection of surf magazines in the world! In fact - his eBay handle was "surfmags" or something like that.
I have a pretty good collection as well including quite a few of the legendary Australian SW Magazine!
