Desert Magazine 1963 Complete (Very Good)
 

Recently bought about 150 copies on Craigslist mint in plastic bags.

I’m interested, will look to see your listings and price. The great thing is that it can be shipped as media mail and shipping will not be too expensive.

Cheers

To give a heads up to what's coming. Treasure Magazine, Lost Treasure, Western and Eastern, Western, and misc. Plus a couple older books .
 

It's great to see you posting this. These mags are lost history. In the early to mid 80's I subscribed to every one I knew about. One in particular I've mentioned on here in the past had the cover showing some of the 140? gold rings found in the water of Lake Erie during a season - mid 80's there about. That was long before I got into water hunting. I'd love to see that mag again.

Let me know when you get them all together and how much for which ones. I have bought a lot of older ones in the past and really enjoy reading them.
 

Hoping to get rest listed this weekend.

Everything but the desert magazine is $1 per issue if you want individual. $.50 per if you buy at least 20.
 

Water Scoop:

I do not believe magazines are eligible for USP Media Mail - see 4.1:
