New to collectSPACE, colleague on another forum suggested I post here.Before the Internet, Aviation Week & Space Technology was the premier magazine for engineers involved in aviation and space technology. I have 5 copies of the magazine, dated June 16, 1969, August 11th and 18th, 1969, and December 8th and 15th, 1969. Plus a copy of a special edition of the Science Journal dated May 1969 "Man on the Moon". The very first photographs ever published of the moon landings came out in AW&ST, in these editions. See here: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 They are in reasonable condition given their age, and have been in my possession since receiving them from the printers. I would appreciate any advice as to their potential value, and the best way to realize it. Thanks. — Alison |

Checking sold items on eBay for you it seems these are worth about $1 each in bulk and up to $5 each for single issues. Good luck.By bulk I mean 30 issues for $30 or less. |

Thanks. Thought these particular editions might have some rarity value, containing the very first published photographs of the moon landings. Hardly worth the expense of keeping them. |

Most magazines "suffer" from the same problem as newspapers as collectibles; there were too many printed. |

Also, they are very hard to display, unless you just want to show the cover. | |
