Hey! I'm being misquoted. Another guy said what you attribute to me, and
I said:
Yes, there is very little market for old magazines.
I'd been trying to break up my collections, for 5 years, with
eventually, no takers, unless I'd pack and ship them; they would then
accept them!! I've been giving them a last tearful nostalgic look,
before into the recycling bin.
The Antique Wireless Association, AWA, has a complete library.
They took a few of mine, to fill in gaps, but I'm not sure how they are
accessed however. K 2 L B.
