    I have a collection of antique collectible Watchtower magazines I am interested in selling. Can anyone give me an idea what I should charge, and is anyone interested in them?

    The collection includes 20 issues from the 1930's. The paper is slightly yellowed. There are almost no dog-eared pages, and the overall condition is quite good. I may post them on ebay.

    1/1/36: Sufferings of Christians, the Purpose
    2/1/36: Convention in Ten Cities
    2/15/36: International Convention
    3/1/36: Loyalty & Faithfulness, Fallacy

    Andrew, I'm planning on building a swimming pool this summer. I'll give you all the fill dirt in return for the mags. P.S. You'll have to haul it.

    You seem underestimate the value of information in the war against cult mind control. Many ex-Witnesses collect old Watchtower literature. I just don't happen to be one of them. No thanks on the fill dirt.

    If you may put them on ebay, then do a search for Watchtowers in the closed auctions, and see what you come up with.

    I would be itnerested myself. I hope you post some results here.

    Thanks.

    You might expect to get $3 - $6 per issue on Ebay, high side if you're lucky. Trouble is, you don't have complete or nearly complete years. A complete year, 1936 or 1937, seems to go for $100 - $200.

    Thanks for the info. I did go ahead and list them on ebay. For anyone interested, the URL is...

    It's weird, for once, instead of "placing" magazines, I am actually "selling" them this time. (Maybe that was the case all along.)
