Help needed re very old vogue magazines...

[username237]

Hi, just after a bit of advice really.

 

My dad has acquired a few really old vogue magazines and we've been led to believe that they might be worth something... one in particular is the coronation edition. The magazines are British and are the following...

 

Feb 1958 (number 2)

 

May 1954 (number 5)

 

June 1955 (number 6)

 

December 1951 (number 12)

 

June 1953 (number 6)

 

I know its a long shot but does anyone know either 1) If they are valuable 2) if you know of anyone/anywhere where I can find out if they are of value or 3) if anyone would be interested in purchasing them. Or of course, if they are worth nothing, should we bin them!!!???

 

Cheers

Sorry, I don't know.

 

One thing you could do to find out would be to have a quick search on google and see if you can find reference to anyone selling similar magazines for lots of £££.

 

Are the mags in decent condition? If they are, then they'll be worth more than ones that look battered about.

 

If you find out that the magazines are worth pots of cash, then don't forget your friends on Karate Forums!

Things are only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for them. To get an idea what someone is willing to pay, check out these vintage Vogue auctions on ebay:
