I need help with info & value, to sell complete sets, 1915- 1970

I bought complete sets of national geographic magazines from an estate auction, the years are from 1915 - 1970, every year of complete sets. And they have maps, index books everything, this guy was a millionaire, he had shelves made to store them all, most are in as new condition. I have no idea what they are worth of what to sell them for. I signed up here from a goggle search thinking I could get some help from someone. I do want to sell them, by year. So, could someone give me any info on what to sell them for or their value, or anything.? thanks a lot DJ

Hey DJ, how are you?

I can try to chat about your questions in another day or 2. I just checked in real quick, but can't really talk at the moment.

If you like, you can click on my ID, and view my prior postings, and if you scan you can see what I have outlined to a few others about some pricing ideas, my own experience, and some general history/info. on the NGS.

kind regards,
Scott T. Shier

oh, this is typically not a site where (members) may check everyday, so if people do not respond in the first few days, don't worry - they will !!! : )
Hi again DJ,

Could you elaborate on this a little bit for me? Like, what are the "index books" you mention? I am curious as to what you paid for the the whole collection too - this would be relevant in determining a realisitc and appropriate price-range.

You can email me @ joekool96@msn.com

have a good day,
