What to do with old S&T Mags?

how about scanning them and selling them on disk !

Adam,

If Jake does that, wouldn't it be possible for S & T to sue him for
selling their intellectual property, or violating their copyright;
much like the music industry is doing?

While cleaning out the garage last week, I cam across two boxes of 20
year old Sky and Telescope magazines. It'd be a shame to throw these
out -- but who would want them? Any ideas?

Jake, another idea is Doctors and dentists offices (Yes, and even lawyers
offices too)....people sit there and read while waiting....you never
know what your June 1993 edition of S & T might start...a budding
astronomer?

Put an ad on Astromart. DR

You hit it right on the head, When I set up for Sidewalk Astronomy I have a
stack of S&T/Astronoy with me and the kids who seem to realy like what they see,
I give'm a magazine to read.

That's how I move out my old copys.

And at the end of that very same day upon which a lone dog-eared and
abraded copy had been secreted into that mound of Cosmo...nope, ...politans
and the like, a scrabble-faced nurse or assistant, respectively, tosses it out; or...

She becomes an amateur astronomer!

Boy, what I wouldn't give to be there.

Or Ebay.

How about promoting Astronomy and Sky &Tel at the same time. Every time you
hope in the car to go to the mall, or some public place, take one copy with
you, and "accidentally" leave it around for someone to find .In no time at
all, they will be gone.. You never know who might pick it up, and get
hooked...Somebody will, as the covers are almost always eye catchers..
