The time has come to be ruthless with my clutter problem at home and a plastic crate of programmes is really not ideal. So I am looking for the best way to pass them on. I haven't gone through them yet but they range from 1980 onwards as well as a couple of older ones I picked up over the years. I also have quite a few Gulls Eyes/Ears and Smith Must Score as well as some random stuff such as programmes from the old 5 a side tournament at the Brighton Centre.
Has anyone else sold a large number of programmes and what was the best way to do it? There are too many and probably too few rare ones to sell individually. Bulk postage is not an option as they weigh a ton but don't know if a Collection only on EBay works or if a trip to a programme fair is the way to go etc. I'm happy to give half of any money to charity if they are worth anything but am loathed to send them to the tip or give them away as there is 35 years of memories there. But much as I like knowing I have them, there isn't much point when I don't look at them.
Any advice gratefully received.
