I stumbled upon a nice collection of vintage Smith and Wesson product catalogs at an estate sale. Its a well kept collection of catalogs from various years spanning from 1940 to the early 2000s. Not one for every year, there are some gaps. Probably 35-40 catalogs in total. All of the catalogs are in good condition, stored in plastic sleeves in 3 ring binders. There are also some dealer promotional sales items.
I will try to take a few pictures this evening, because I know everyone likes them. Looking through these old catalogs is a real treat, seeing all of the classic models, options, and prices.
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had any idea of the value of such a collection. I purchased it with the intent of reselling it, hoping it was worth a little more than what I paid for it.
Any input on values or a good place to sell them would would be appreciated.
