My father collected magazines for many years and has since passed. My brothers and I are in the process of helping my mother move into a retirement community and she has decided to let the collection go. There are many magazines into the teens, some earlier reprints, and -- I believe -- complete years from the 20's on. We are looking to learn what value these magazines may have for collectors, how to summarize the collection to make available to sell and so on. Can anyone give some…

I have recently had time to go through some boxes left by my in-laws. There are a little over 200 issues ranging from 1952-1990. Some are complete years, while others are missing some issues. Not sure what to do with them. Seems a shame to throw them out or send to recycling if they may have some value to someone. If anyone is interested, or can tell me where to go from here, please contact me. I have put an ad on ebay, but have gotten no response as of yet.
Thank you.
