So just cleared out a dark corner of the attic, and I’ve found a huge pile of “observer” and “Sunday times” magazines from 1975 to 1980
All immaculate and like “new ” – they have some pretty cool stories and adverts in them too (cool one about Niki Lauder, as an example)

Seems a shame to recycle them (via the paper recycling bin) so at they worth anything to a collector ?

Unfortunately probably not at all.

Just seems a shame to chuck em away, more out of historical interest than anything – there can’t be many copies around (if any a all)

Mind you there may be a reason for that :-/

There’s hope…. I’ve got a LOT of these covers 🙂

Sell your old mags here

Get a second opinion from antique dealers?

I would keep them.

They’re only worth what somebody is prepared to pay.

If you’ve got the time to go through them you may stumble across something interesting like a potentially embarrassing article written by an earnest young journalist who has since changed their tune, or a remarkably prescient article about, for example, the break up of the Soviet Union – I had one that I cut out of the Sunday Times magazine about Yugoslavia and thought it so good and clear that I kept it in a safe place but couldn’t find it when hell broke loose there.
