National Geographic's Collectors Corner

Collaborative site for collectors, dealers, & anyone interested in our history.

     I have a collection of NGM that I must let go of because of a down-sizing in residences.  I have gone through some of the magazines and have tried to catigorize the condition of each according to the Grading Standards for magazines at www.dtmagazine.com:  MINT, NRMT (Near Mint), VF (Very Fine), FINE, VG (Very Good), GOOD, and I've added a catagory below GOOD, which I call FAIR.  Here's what I have:

     I have more recent years and I'll catagorize and post them later.

     I'll sell those above individually, as follows:  1919 -1929, $15 each; 1930-1945, $10 each; 1946-1947, $7.50 each.  Buyer pays postage.  Please contact me at meinergl@olypen.com.

I purchased four magazines from Grant and would like to commend him for his assessment, packaging, and speedy delivery.

My collection standards are high, and Grant nailed each issue on the head with his assessment.

Thank you Grant, it was a pleasure doing business with you.

Regards,

Mel
