Dan,

Another option is the Yahoo Group HO Interchange. There's a weekend media
sale quarterly, it would require breaking up the collection into theme
blocks.

Subject: (erielack) Block Line + Stoker free + Large Library (for sale)

 

List:

 

 

Firstly, the free stuff, most of which is in three ring binders. This
includes the Block Line (1975 to 1990), the Stoker (every issue except the
first), and the Railroad Enthusiast Bulletin (1970 - 1990). The Block Line
especially has many well written articles, both events of the day and really
excellent history. Please contact me off list and first come, first served.

I enjoyed this material but it is time to lighten up.

 

 

Now for the strictly commercial part - if this offends, then please delete
now. A friend passed away several weeks ago and I offered to help the widow
to dispose of his library. If I had known the extent of his collection, I
might have thought twice. I have no personal financial interest in this sale
but feel the obligation to see that it is fairly carried out. There are
about 20 boxes, each a heavy back-breaker. I have taken possession of 13
boxes and estimate there are 6 of 7 more to bring home.

 

 

The books are pretty evenly split between railroad and traction
(trolley/subway). The railroad material is heavily weighted to the northeast
including many on the EL and predecessors. I might wind up splitting the
collection in half (railroad and traction) if that would facilitate the
sale. The books are mostly in excellent condition with dust-jackets.
