I have inherited a NG collection and am looking for places to sell individual issues or give the entire set away. Just don't have the space to keep 800+ issues. I haven't found any places locally that want the set since they have access to electronic media. Please let me know if you're interested. I'd even be willing to give the set away, but you'd have to pay for shipping (which is probably going to be high). I'm a teacher, so I figure I can use the newer ones at school, but I don't have the heart to let students cut up the older issues. All the older issues are in fair condition (some damage along the bindings, etc.), considering their age, unless otherwise noted.
1912- October (no cover)
1915- Jan, Feb, Apr, Dec (2 copies of Dec., one is intact; the other the cover has come away from the pages, but itself is still intact)
1916- Jan, Mar, Aug, Sept, Dec
1917- All issues
1918- two bound volumes (Jan-Jun #33 & Jul-Dec #34)
1920- Mar, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sept
1925- May
1927- Jun of 2001 (there might be a few missing issues here and there)
There are also many maps. I've listed them in a separate posting. .
