Did I mention...

I bought 97 bound volumes (apx 1000 issues) of life magazine and Time magazine from the 40's, 50's & some 60's.
To give you a visual I have them stacked and they form a 5 foot tall, five foot long, 10 inch thick wall between Brooke and I.
What to do, what to do, what to do?
I want to read all of them but it takes me at least an hour just to flip through each volume.
Some of the issues I have I've seen sell very well (in the $100s) for a single issue. And some of the ads do well on there own but I would hate to cut any up.
To sell by volume, properly, it would take me a day to scan and describe each one.
To sell the whole lot I know I wouldn't get what they are worth.
What to do?

Is each bound volume a year?

No, since these are weekly mags each bound volume is 3 months. 4 volumes=1 year

I just have one from Time from the 40s. I love it so much, I would never sell it. The ads are great.

I would sell them separately but try not to spend too much time on each one (easier said than done, I know). Maybe one feature article depicting the year and two or three ad pics.
