Old Fishing Mags

[Shawn]

I have several Old field and stream magazines from 1959 and 1960 that were my grandfather's and I was wondering what they might be worth? Are they even collectables? They are in great shape and do hold quite a bit of sentimental value for me but it would be nice to know how much they are worth (for insurance). If you have any information please feel free to send me an e-mail.

Yes, they are collectible, but even though they are 40 years old, your mags are on the "new" side. The mags from the 1920's, 30's and 40's are the hot tickets. Just go to Ebay and you will see that old outdoor mags sell anywhere from $2 to $25 depending on many factors. The most desirable and valuable mags have beautiful cover art by famous cover artists (like L.B. Hunt, Hinton, Goodwin, Haskins and several others,) and they are in minty condition. Good luck.
