How much are my old newspapers/periodicals worth?
From an American Library Association pamphlet:
- "In general, libraries do not appraise books [or newspapers];
that is the business
of bookdealers...
- The [Antiquarian Booksellers' Association of America] ABAA membership
directory
will give you a listing of booksellers...with their specialties
[including newspapers]...
- ABAA's web page is at: http://abaa.org
- Some old magazine and comic books are valuable, especially if
in good condition...
Your local library may have issues of Hobbies
magazine, which includes informative
articles and lists of dealers..."
