Medical Journals

Options
Hi guys,

I have around 100 different copies of the British Journal of Hospital Medicine that have fallen into my possession. Other than ebay I wondered if you could recommend somewhere for me to sell them?

They're from the 1970's and in good condition, are they even worth anything! Seems a shame to recycle them if there are people out there who might pay good money for them.

Some still even have the insert/leaflet adverts still inside!

Thanks in advance!

Neil

    People buy comics or old football programmes, and even cinema and theatre brochures, so i suppose someone may collect old medical stuff.
    Try a comic shop if they're not interested they may point you the way to someone who is.

    What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

    I doubt they have any worth- the information would be horribly dated! You might turn them into a museum or a professional body, if they wanted them.

    Advertise them on gumtree (or the equivalent, free) as ideal for medical students who wish to give their superiors &/or colleagues a bit of a turn. Collection only (unless they want to pay - and I rate myhermes highly for shifting large weights at low prices) but loads of scope for medical humour...
    Card makers may also have fun with them & the illustrations, adverts & flyers.
    Can anyone suggest a possible third "market"? (My tea levels have dropped.)

    Only if *noone* will give you tuppence for them, take them to a nearby school for papier mache?
