[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by aardvark I've bought a lot of old mags, mostly '70s on, but with a few back to '47 mixed in. Generally I just cut out the articles I like and throw out the husks, but I'm hesitant when doing it to a mag 60 years old. Given that these things go begging on Ebay at 50 cents per, is there really any value in keeping these old ones whole? Kurt Laughlin [/quote] Everyone tends to file things in his own way, but I choose to remove pages with good articles that can be used for references and toss the older magazines to save on space. Our hobby has changed so much in the last ten years, many of the older articles are not totally relevant to our latest technolgy. Articles on weathering and basic model building can usually be used and drawings of prototype equipment is always good to have for your reference. Some of the tips and articles do stand the test of time for sure. If you space, keep them for your future reference.
