Maybe that was the cup final money!
In keeping with the theme of the day.
I found a large stash of 1970's pornographic magazines when I took the side panel off the bath, in my old flat.
It wasn't mine, some of the magazines had been thoroughly enjoyed.

So who owns it and how much is its real value in todays money? ie how much is someone going to pay for it (not this 30k is worth a million now bollox)

Any notes that are around 50% recognisable and have a serial number still visible can be salvaged by the Bank of Englands damage bank note dept in Leeds. You'll get face value for every note salvaged. The money now belongs to current store owners since police have been unable to identify any lawful owner/legal claimant.

So face value is £30K, where does the £million figure come from? What they are saying is that £30K then is the equivalent to putting one million under the floorboards today rather than that's how much you can get for this money. Although collectors may offer over the odds for the rarity of the notes.

They must still be worth a few bob - if you can get the pages back together again. Mine are impossible though as they're stuck like superglue.
Between the ages of 12 and 16 (so 86 -90) I amassed a HUGE collection of porn mags. Moving house meant that I had to reluctantly bin 99% of it and only keep a few favourites.
Bloody kids today have no idea. You couldn't just bookmark Jo Guest's best work.

That's very young to have dirty mags. I was 14 when I got a couple and thought it affected my school work a little.
You're right about Jo Guest. I did so much waxing the dolphin over her. Very pretty and a fanny from heaven.

One suspects that they were left because the original owner wanted to hold a real woman and that ladies' waxing/shaving had come into vogue.
After all, 'a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush'.
Just google the appropriate search words and I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for.. I know I have.

I'd love to know the historical scenarios of that former household....
Husband: "I'm just off upstairs for a bath love"
Wife: "Again? You had one only this morning. And why do you keep taking a screwdriver with you everytime you go up for a bath?"
As all the magazines were being pulled out from under the bath, the highlight came from my female neighbour who was round.
She was eagerly flicking through these 30 or 40 magazines, ranging from a 1970 Playboy (the year of my birth) to Naturist Monthly, we were laughing and joking, but she was getting frustrated with some of the pages stuck together.
She kept carefully trying to rip them open.
Eventually I said 'what do you think they are stuck together with?'
Time stood still, as I waited for the penny to drop.
Her scream finally gave it away, then the OCD hand washing, after which the 'fun' was most definitely gone from the situation.
It’s not the same Marlowe. There was so much skill and patience needed in separating those pages after a while.
On a different tack - but not really - I see that there is actually a product called iWipes.
