      From: ki7ll@centurytel.net              I have come across about 30 pounds of Chicago Tribune Headline pages and       front page sections with all headlines from WWII.       Some of the headline pages read,       * Great War Ends *Atom-Bomb Nagasaki *Russ invade Manchuria *Japs Bare Atom       Havoc (They're inhuman Tokyo Wails.*New Weapon Stuns Enemy.*Big push for       Rhine is on.*Roosevelt Burial Today.*9,752 Yanks Fall On Saipan.*Reds Push       Closer To Minsk.*FDR Wins 34 States, Japan ripped by atom bomb.       And several headlines on the European theatre.       There are many many headline pages saved together with day by day accounts       of progress in Europe and the pacific. There are also a couple of old       Arizona Republic newspapers from 1925 and also several issues of Country       Gentleman farm magazine from 1923 to 1925 and also Southwest Stockman Farmer       magazine from the same era 1920's.       I don't suppose these things are worth too much as most are browned but in       good shape, the Country Gentleman mags are still white. Different type of       paper ?       Can anyone direct me to where I might sell or trade these if they are worth       anything ? I would hate to take them to the dump as it would seem they       could have some memorabilia value to someone.       And thank to all who take a look at this post.......
