Maps from 1959 to 1989 free to a good home
Update - May 8, 2013 - I've edited the title of this thread to make it easier for others to see that these maps are now available for the price of postage, if interested. Thanks.
Hi Everybody,
I have about 90 maps from National Geographic, staring with December 1959 and ending with October 1989. These were from my grandpa's collection, which he gave me, as I was map-happy as a kid.
However, over time, too many collections have built up and I need to downsize.
I was hoping to find a good home for these maps. They are all in Near Mint condition, I would say the average grade is 9.0 out of 10.0.
I don't have any clue to values, but I thought offering them for $1 each, plus postage would be fair.
If anyone is interested, please post or message me. I can also post a list of the maps, here.
Thank you for your time.
Bill

Hi Wendy,
Did you get my emails? If you're not interested in the maps anymore, that's OK. The wife just wants them out of the house, so they will be going into the recycle bin next week.
Thanks,

Hi Chuck!
Yes, I am getting your e-mails. Just busy at work and not a lot of energy when I get home. I'll get to all of it ASAP; thanks for your patience. I appreciate it.
Did I get your address?

Hi Wendy,
I haven't heard from you and the wife wants the maps out of the house. Garbage day is tomorrow, if I don't hear from you.
Thanks.

Hi Chuck!
Finally have some time! Can you send your mailing address again with your mailing address? And the total amount for the maps?
Thanks!
Wendy
P.S. Can't seem to find any of your e-mail other than through the NGM site.
