Anybody collect Redbooks?

When collecting Redbooks do you want to keep the little round price tag on the cover or should it be removed? It seems that the adhesive on the tag will only damage the cover.

  • If it is a permanent sticker, I leave it on. Steve
  • None of mine have them still attached. Got 'em back to 1963.

  • I've got them all except for the last 3 years. I'm thinking of putting them up on ebay. Don't know if I will do it individually or as a set. I know, I'm lazy. Steve

    Your best bet is to sell the early ones individually and the later ones in groups i.e. 1980-1989.

  • The redbook discusses itself as a collectible. It's always right at the end of the book. P. 344 in my 2004 spiral-bound copy.

    I think I've left the stickers on. I have about 20 or so, with the earliest being '63 or so.

    This is a great book to read once in a while. While the specific pricing info is not useful, using even the pricing info in a genral since ansd comparing it to different years does give you some insights. There is a lot of other useful tidbits you pick up when reading through it.

    I have the 3rd edition from 1949 which is my oldest.
