1920's/30's car and bike magazines?

[Melchett]

Can anyone give me any advice as to the best way to shift some old car and motorbike magazines from the 1920's? I also have some old brochures for a Fiat Model 510, Minerva Type XX and Calcott cars. I have seen some similar magazines for sale on eBay for £25 a pop, but the point is they are still for sale and I have already tried some specialist sellers but I dont get any response when I contact them. Any advice would be much appreciated, the list of stuff is below:

Table in the autojumble at the Restoration Show on Sunday?

Take them to the NEC in November. I imagine one of the Automobilia traders there will bite your hand off.

If any of your magazines have an article on the Rover 9/20 the I would be interested in buying that copy from you.

I'd be interested to know what's in the motorbike ones. Anything from the 1920s with Montgomery in it, and I'd be even more interested

The Bullnose Register or the Morris Register would surely be the place to move the Morris mags on.

The only Montgomeries I can find are in the bikes for sale section
1925 Montogmery 31/2hp, o.h.v. Actual t.t. Machine, 8- inch coupled brakes ..........£85

I think it will have been sold!

Hi
Sorry this is a bit of an old thread but did you ever sell the old Magazines, my Grandfather used to write for Motorcycling and I'm trying to pick up a few.

Dan,

My brother's the current editor of The Classic Motorcycle. I just checked with him and Motorcycling and The Motorcycle amalgamated in 1963, then became The Classic Motorcycle more recently.

He's said he's happy to help if you want to get in touch wth him? They have a huge archive of the old magazines - it could be interesting for you both!

He also asked your grandfather's name? PM me if you'd rather and I can pass it on to him
