Hello everyone
Please be gentle with me - I'm a newbie to the forum and I wasn't sure where to post this (please feel free to redirect me to the correct place if needed!).
I have just been clearing out the loft at my grandparents' farm, and have come across a huge collection of old Horse & Hound magazines dating back to the late 70s/ early 80s. I've been informed by my grandparents that they have pretty much every single issue release during this time. They are all bundled together, and haven't seen the light of day for decades. As such, they're very dusty but look to be in excellent condition overall.
Having had a quick flick through them, there appear to be a number of commemorative issues (the Charles/Diana wedding issue being one of them, as well as a series of "hunting special" issues). I wondered whether these magazines would be of any interest to anybody, and whether anybody could give me any indication as to how much they might be worth (I realise that they may not be worth much, but certain issues might be worth something to a collector).
As I mentioned before, the collection contains virtually every issue between the late 70s and early 80s. If somebody would be kind enough to give me some advice, or to point me in the direction of someone who may be able to help, I'd be very grateful. They were on their way to the tip this morning before I decided to hold them back until I'd found out a bit more about them.
Thank you.
