Not kidding. I did not know. I happen to know a lot of guys who restore cars, but rarely ever drive them. Look up Gilmore... as in Gilmore car museum... My wife spent years managing Estate Sales, and

I second Dave's motion on this one. My QST collection dates from 1915 to the present and I started collecting about 40 years ago. I made sure I read each batch I found before putting in the bookshelf

Me. I collected for 25 years and NEVER had time to read the mags. Career and family didn't permit the time. I kept thinking, well when I'm retired I can read them. Now I'm retired and still don't hav

Throw them out or put them on E-Bay or Eham. You cannot take them with you when you die.  The XYL will toss them out in the garbage or some ham with take them to a swap fest then trash them if not so

Sadly, that is the answer. When I moved out of my parents house, I had 20 years of QST, CQ, Ham Radio and 73. I called 3 or 4 Public Libraries and then 3 university libraries. No one, repeat, NO ONE

Sadly, when QST and other magazines get to be about six months old, they go in the blue bin. Years ago, when I was more active in the local club, members would drop off their copies, especially after

As they became available, I ordered the CDs with five years of QST in each set, beginning with 1960-64; about the time that I first became interested in ham radio. To be honest, they have sat on the

Well, if there's anyone in decent driving distance of Pittsburgh is planning to pitch their older QSTs, talk to me first. I once had every issue from 1970 onwards; I regret having to give them away,

John, Many thanks for the excellent summary of commentary - it was a long thread. The sobbering reflection on what happens to accumulated treasures is food for thought. Perhaps a slow and steady flow

In my small library in an equally small town in Western NC there is a demand for any magazine. They bundle them in sacks of 10 magazines and sell that sack for a dime. Yep, a dime in year 2011. They
