Oh believe me, eBay is my absolute last resort. Give me a day or so to take the pictures and I'll get them to you as quickly as I can.<br />
Thanks So much!<br />

Thanks for the quick reply Pat. Shipping from the US to Canada is not a problem. We are talking about a small box of magazines, probably 10 or 12 pounds in total. US Posal Service has an expedited parcel rate to Canada that is quite reasonable, and when I buy from Nick, that is how I ship.<br />
<br />
You are certainly free to try e-bay, but you may be disappointd. I too want magazines that are as pristine as possibe, although staining is almost a given with 100 year old plus magazines. I no longer buy…

You are certainly free to try e-bay, but you may be disappointd. I too want magazines that are as pristine as possibe, although staining is almost a given with 100 year old plus magazines. I no longer buy from e bay because I cannot trust the quality descriptions of the site, and most serious buyers will take the same attitude. Nick can help you figure out a fair price for your magaines. What I am interested in are magazines with solid covers, front and back, and solid spines. If you could provide pictures of these for sour magazines, I would go from there. My personal e-mail is dave_coopersmith@shaw.ca. It would be far less hassel for you to sell the magazines as a lot.<br />

Hello! It was very nice to get your reply. Yes I absolutely I would be interested, I would be happy to take detailed pictures for you. Everything he has is in really good shape however there are a couple that might have a little stain but you would see that in the pictures. For the most part his ambition was to collect the most pristine copies that he could get his hands on.<br />

I haven't really done much research as to their worth, I was just starting to do my research in that respect and think about eBay. I know you're not exactly local how do you think we can handle the shipping?<br />
I will make a detailed list of what I have in the years you're interested in.<br />
When I have the pictures complete for you where should I email them?<br />

<p>Hi Pat. So sorry for your loss. I hope your brother enjoyed his hours of collection with NG. It takes a certain kind of passion to embrace this.</p>
<p></p>
<p>If you are interested, I would be interested in purchasing everything prior to 1913. If you have settled on a price, and could take a few pictures of the magazines, I would love to talk with you.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p></p>

<p>Patricia,</p>
<p>1960 issues sell on E-Bay for around $2.00 each while 1970's only 50 cents each. I would discard 1970 onward. Map values drop for 1960 on up to today. I would keep 1888 to 1957.(the late 1950's and the 1960's maps were basically a world atlas series). Keep the maps with their magazines when you sell the magazines.</p>

Thank you so much! It Is useful to me to have this information, I really do appreciate it. I think it's wonderful you are willing to share your expertise with us !<br />
I will now Look closely at my earliest issues to verify whether or not they are reprints.<br />
What year going forward would you say to just try to get rid of them for whatever? 1940 forward or later? I just don't want to waste time on issues that won't get us very much going forward.<br />

<p>Patricia,</p>
<p>Sorry for Your Loss. Reprints were from 1888 thru 1907. On the front cover of reprinted issues is the small word "reprint " near the bottom of the front cover. From what you said I think the early issues you have are originals (most reprints are in mint -like new condition). Your money issues are 1913 back to your 1897 issue.

Early (pre 1915) issues with attached maps or supplements are also valuable.</p>
<p>I hope this info helps you out...</p>
