    This is the top-selling piece from a lot of dozens of antique Harley-Davidson Enthusiast magazines.

    A short while ago, one of our consignors brought in a lot of old magazines.  She had been trying to throw this box away for years, but finally thought to bring it in to Auction Bay.  We put a few up to see how well they might sell, and to our surprise, the first old magazine sold for over $300!

    What she had were Harley-Davidson Enthusiast magazines dating back to the early 1920s, and the earliest were dated from 1918 and 1919, and featured articles on Dispatch Riders from the First World War!  These magazines held pictures and articles all about early Harleys and their riders, and proved to be highly sought-after.  They sold very well, with the highest selling single magazine reaching just shy of $600!

    So, if you happen to have antique magazines (typically anything dated before 1960 has a good chance of sale), especially hobby magazines and other periodicals that may feature detailed pictures or model plans, don’t pitch them out!  Bring them in to Auction Bay, and we’ll help you sell them on eBay!  After all, thanks to this forgotten collection, our consignor took home over $5000!
