Hi Everyone,

I have been posting items in other areas so I thought I would see if you want me to post with this group.

I have been selling paper items, mostly ads from magazines, for the last 40 years or so, at swapmeets and flea markets. I have over 40,000 ads in storage now because I have quit vending at the different meets. I also have a large quanitity of assorted magazines that are uncut.

The other day I was looking through a box and discovered this Tobacco Journal. I thought you might like to see what was happening in the Tobacco industry in 1940.

This is a large format magazine and I have to scan each page two times then stitch the two halves together to make up one page. It takes some time to get this done, so I did the first three pages to see if there is any interest. The magazine is 32 pages so it will take a couple of days to complete the project if the interest is there.

Here are the first three pages.

If this is something you would like to see, let me know.
