Where to sell: old bus map

I have a bus guide for the local area from 1993, in pristine condition. Just wondering where the best place to sell it would be. I doubt there'll be that many people searching for such an item on eBay, so if there are specialist places, that would be useful.

Cheers

    I can't really help you regarding where to go - but 1993 isn't really very old, I doubt it'd be worth much anywhere tbh. Maybe you should keep hold of it for a few more years yet?

    Oh, that's a shame. Might stick it in the loft for another decade :)

    I agree, 1993 is not old enough to be interesting. I have successfully sold bus and train timetables and such like from the 1930s, but only for about 99p each. Also very early London Transport can do well, but the paper will probably have rotted before a mass produced bus map has any value at all.

    The problem is, not only is it not that old, but it's also mass-produced, so it's not very rare really. Slightly different, but I once looked into selling a programme from the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II (1953), and it turned out to barely be worth the paper it was printed on.
