I also have a small (yet valuable) collection of printed matter. Magazines and newspapers from specific events in history. As an example, I just happened to be in Paris on the day that Princess Diana was killed in that car wreck at pont de l'Alma. So I bought up a newspaper from every carrier in Paris and sealed them in plastic.

As a kid I was given by an Uncle first few issues of some British comics...
The Beano , Dandy and Eagle....
I read them...left them on the floor of my room , the dog chewed them I threw them out.

I've never checked out what they would be valued at now...and won't lol.

On the Lady Di...

Isn't the Sun in the UK from the day before she died worth money because it did a story basically calling her a slut for fucking an Arab?

I actually have that issue Nick. But I did not know if it was worth anything or not. I had been in London for 4 days prior to my trip to Paris and I purchased the Sun for my flight.

Geeeez... now I have to find it and see what you're talking about!!!
