1981 THRU 2003 complete set of National Geographic Magazines in Slip Cases

I have all issues of the 1981 thru 2003 National Geographic Magazines, stored in the slip cases that are available thru National Geographic. I also have the index that was is available from 1888 thru 2003. I am trying to find a good home for these items. Does anyone have any suggestions. Are these items saleable, or should I look for a donation point.  It is time to down size. We are in the Central Ohio area

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.Thank you, Cherie Scherler

Cherie,

I did not know a single index from 1888 thru 2003 was available, or are you stating you have a collection of indexes as a complete reference for these years? I'm not trying to be curt, as a collector, the smallest details are important. I am interested in collecting the indexes, especially the supplements to cumulative index books.

As to finding a good home for your collection, the following link may assist you:

The index that I have is a large volume of 1888 thru 1988,  a suplement of 1989 thru 1993, and individual index for 1994 thru 2003. Sorry for the confussion. Thank you so much for providing the link to the information on selling the collection. I missed that when I was on the site.  I guess I will have to decide on what to do next. I would say that all of the issues are like new as well as the slip cases. So do I store them and perhaps my grand daughter can use them when she gets to school. Thank you again.
