I have about 17 or 18 boxes of "vintage" (to use an auctioneer's term) woodworking magazines, including a whole set of #1-243 (and probably more if I sorted them) plus a number of years of sequential and scattered earlier ones of FWW. They are too valuable, I believe, to just scrap them and probably time (according to the Mrs.) to get rid of them. I see them selling on eBay by sets of 1-20 or so, but have no idea if they actually get sold that way. Nor do I want a part time job selling and running to the post office every couple of days for onsie-twosies. There's way to much volume and weight to ship out (the 243 set occupies about 5 full boxes) The Cinci Library would probably take them, but just sell at their annual "garage book sale." The more local library does not seem to have any archives like that. Every time I go there, there's a couple of carts of books being downsized for $1 a bag. Any thoughts on a quick and easy way to sell them? I've enquired at a local online auction and waiting to hear back if they are interested.

I have a whole shelf full of banker boxes of old woodworking magazines (I cannot bear to throw them away). When I started (pre-internet days), I learned a lot from them. Now, I subscribe to very few. But I still read most of them. My local library has a lot of them on e-readers that I can read online at my leisure. As an Ohio resident, I have patron IDs at Cincinnati, Columbus, and Cleveland libraries and can get current or back e-reader issues on demand. My local (Cincinnati) library circulates their recent issues, back a few years, and I can put a reserve on them and pick them up at my local branch if I want the hardcopy for any reason. This morning, I pulled off the pages for the Shaker Berry Box from an issue of FWW a year ago.
