National Geographic's Collectors Corner

Collaborative site for collectors, dealers, & anyone interested in our history.

Almost complete collection, Extremley good to Very good to good condition, from 1918 up to 1960`s

Hi All.

I have a few in near perfect condition form 1918, and then a complete set form about 1921 on into the early 1960`s in extremly good to good condition. The ones form teh 1960`s are spotty, and i have most all the recent ones as well. but the heart of my family collection are the almost perfect ones form the 20`s, the 30`s, the 40`s, and the 1950`s.

Many of the maps are also present in near perfect or perfect condition.

Any idea of value, or the best way to sell them ? i saw mentioned that one could sell the Coke ads form the 40`s and 50`s separately, But since these are mostly so fine in condition, i would rather sell them intact.

Thanks for your interest, ideas or help.

My wife thinks i am crazy thinking that they are worth anything. It would be quite fun to prove her mistaken this time !:-)
