    Hi all,

      I've come across a few old Woodworker magazines of my granda's and wondered if anyone would be interested in buying them or if there is a market for them anywhere.

    They're dated between 1903 and 1924 (I think), mostly in decent condition but a couple of them have loose pages.

    If anyone was interested I could provide more info and photos.

    Cheers,

    Bob.

    Looks like they'll be going in the bin then.

    Shame.

    Hi Bob,

    I don't think there's much of a market for the old woodworking magazines. If you can't find a home for them I'm sure I can find a space in the Magicalia magazine archive. We do have quite a few old annuals but it's by no means a complete set.

    Let me know if you want me take them off your hands.

    Cheers,
    Ben

    Hi Bob

    Fill in your profile so we can see where abouts you are in the country. Might be someone local to you that would be willing to collect them. Also tick the box in your profile to allow private messaging as people might not want to dicuss cost on the open forum.

    How many magazines do you have and how much are you looking for?

    All the best

    I seem to have missed this post previously.

    There is definitely a market for your magazines - have a look at Ebay.  Search for "magazines" then "vintage."

    if you do put them up for auction will be interesting to hear how you go on.
