Find out more about Walt: AuctionWally has been an auctioneer and appraiser for 25 years. He runs an antiques appraisal blog where he writes about the value of antiques and how to sell them. You can find him at www.auctionwally.com. |
A couple of days ago I wrote an article which contained a partial price guide and values for antique and collectible newspapers.
The article was a prelude to tonight's episode of The AuctionWally Show on which I'll be interviewing one of the most prominent vintage newspaper sellers on the Internet, William Smith.
He sells on eBay as Oldnewspapers. I'm looking forward to the show, I'm sure he'll have a lot of great information for us.

Now I'd gotten a lot of much interest in that article, and some folks asked if I had any more specific prices on vintage sports papers. I put a feeler out to my network, and got the following information from my friend Cliff Aliperti who's a quite an ephemera aficionado himself.
Cliff is more into vintage Hollywood photos, magazines and such, but like most of us, spreads himself out to learn what's going on in related fields.
Thanks so much to Cliff for providing the following price report on these vintage sports papers.
