Magazines from the mid-sixties, What to do with them?
 
Hey all, i've got about 100 magazines from the early to mid sixties, most in excellent condition, some in good, almost to none in what i would consider "fair". My dad gave them too me on my 40th (nine years ago) and i haven't done anything with them.

So, Ebay? frame some? anybody here looking for anything in particular? I'm just remodeling my closet so my wife can fill it with more crap, I mean clothes...sorry dear.

I had a bunch from the mid 50's through the late sixties, lots of the little ones as well. I read them all and then recycled them. I learned quite a bit from those rags...Barris was a hack, Karts were super neat and racing, all types, wasn't full of rolling billboards. Loved reading the classifieds in the back!

I'm sure you could get a few bucks for them especially the more popular covers, Shelby's, Ed Roth...is it worth your time?

Someone on the HAMB might give you a buck or two?

How about you sign them, and when you get super famous, I sell them to fund my pro-touring cars?


Or if you're keen to just pass them along, I think they would be cool wall art in your office at work, at home or here at the shop. I have a blue plastic tub full to the top with magazines. It took three of us to carry it into the front. But these are older than mine, and thus, would be nicer on the wall. The tub-o-zines I scrounge for cool old tech articles and to find inspiration.

Decoupage. I've seen someone do an entire bathroom wall with old little pages mags. Pretty cool for a shop too!

I thought all those guys on the HAMB were so talented that they would rather print and then patina their own rags:D
