Model Forum / General / Models / April 2004Magazine values
I have several Model Airplane News magazines dating from the 1950's - the oldest being from 1951. Most are in good condition with some having just the cover missing. The pages have yellowed over time but are generally in good shape. Does anyone know what these magazines are worth or where I could find out their value? > I have several Model Airplane News magazines dating from the 1950's - the > oldest being from 1951.

There is, generally from $ 1.00 to maybe $10.00 in great shape. -- John The history of things that didn't happen has never been written. . - - - Henry Kissinger Price depends on how much space they take up and what condition. With about twenty cases of excess books and magazines making life difficult in the office and garage I tend to sell cheap, $1-2 per issue on magazines, $3-10 on books. The older magazines in good condition can fetch more, but missing pages and especially covers really kills value. Good luck, Tom I have set up a table at model shows occasionally during the past 15 years. I have found most magazines don't sell at all, even when offered for a dollar or less. This applies to old and new mags. I've always been disappointed with re-sale of these. It seems tough to get most folks to buy good model mags new, like Fine Scale and SAMI. My theory is that if one is willing to buy hobby mags at all, they will buy them new off the stands or by subscription. Those who won't, don't seem to buy them later, even at markedly discounted prices.
