If you had enough you could set up your own museum and charge admission. 🙂 Actually there's another site I found with some rare newspapers, and some cost as little as around $20. I think I might buy some from the site.http://www.rarenewspapers.com/
I have a few of those. I have one declaring the end of the first world war. I have the one where they caught the guy who kidnapped Lindbergs baby and a few others.The one thing I know about them is it does depend on which newpaper the article is in. For instance if you had one reporting the sinking of the Titanic. It would be worth more in a New york Paper then say one from Nowwhere Kansas. The bigger and more widely known the paper the more valuable it is.My WW1 paper is from the San Fransisco Chronicle.
