I'm Moving-Willing to donate my late father's collection Jan.2016-Dec 1988 complete

Greetings,

I inherited my late father's NG collection when my mom passed away in 2016.  I am moving out-of-state and need to find his collection a new home.  It is a complete collection, Jan 1916 through Dec 1988.  Jan 1916 - Dec 1969 are bound in Suckert binders and the remaining are unbound.  The collection is in very good condition.  As far as I can determine there are no maps included.  I would be open to donating the entire collection to a non-profit, such as a library or academic institution.  Does anyone have any insights they can share or point me in the right direction?  

Warm regards,
Diane Agar

Well it looks like the NG collection is heading to the local paper recycling dump.  If anyone wants any of the issues that I have, Jan 1916-Dec 1969, please reach out to me by 10/1 and I would be more than happy to work with you to get them to you.  

Warm regards,

Don't know if my post it late (and I guess it is), but if you're willing to donate your father's NG collection, I am more than willing to accept it.

Nemanja,  

Thank you for reaching out but unfortunately it is too late.  The entire collection was discarded to our local recycling plant.  Too bad the timing was off.

Warm regards,
Diane
