Hi all, For anyone who's interested, I'm selling my ZOONOOZ collection on Ebay. There are 4 lots containing issues from 1950 - 1990. Link: djaeon | eBay Thanks for looking!
I'm interested in why you are selling. You have obviously devoted a lot of time and money and put a lot of value into collecting 40 years worth. Thanks
I'm selling them because I tend to collect too many things. I have a collectors mentality, and when I get interested in something, in this case the San Diego Zoo, I like to collect things related to that interest. The problem is I'm interested in too many things, and that does consume a lot of money and space So, I'm curbing that habit. I'm going to focus my collecting impulses on just a couple of subjects that I'm most interested in, keep a few of my favorite pieces from the other subjects, and try and sell the rest. Another smaller motivator is that I'm going to be moving to a different state at some point in the future, and less stuff makes for an easier move. I have ZOONOOZ' all the way through the current issue, but I'm going to donate the newer ones, from 1991 on, to a school. I have a bunch of other Zoo memorabilia that I will eventually sell as well. I also have National Geographic's back to the '20's or '30's and Popular Mechanics back to the '50's or '60's that I want to eventually sell.
