See first post above
In the dumpster, gone.
I feel your frustration Rick… Oh, well.
Same here. I know the frustration of even trying to GIVE something away and then ending up tossing it.
I couldn’t sell NGSL Gazettes at the NELSTS for even $1.50 each. And now, I can’t get rid of them on Ebay for $1 each (the crazy shipping costs aren’t helping). But I can’t stand the thought of sending them to recycling…

Talking about understanding frustration. I have every Gazoo from 1983 to date and am thinking about passing them on, ya right. Maybe a few of the oldest ones
Edit to add.
Don’t even think of asking a library, they don’t want anything that’s not digital. I had 3 leatherbound books with carved leather covers on the route exploration for the western expansion railroad published in 1857.
These particular books covered the geography, flora/fauna, and peoples of the possible route. They contained beautiful maps, colored lithographs and detailed information.
Couldn’t give them away.
Tried local libraries, California state Railroad Museum, craigs list nothing doing,
Finally got Timber Heritage Assoc/museum to take them because I donated a bunch of local historical papers to them.
Damn shame.
Aah man… that’s a heartbreaking story. Carved leatherbound? 1857?? Wow. I’m relieved a museum finally took them.
Yep. This week’s bin has about 50 copies of Railpace magazine. It’s a photo mag of Northeast RRs. I did refuse to recycle a full double set of Radio Shack Computer Catalogs from the first TRS-80 Model One through the last one they printed about 10 years later. I did toss my Winged Victory Trophy for managing one of the top ten RS Computer Departments by profit. I’ll also be hauling 20+ years of the FEBT Timber Transfer magazine that I’ll donate to the Co. Store that sells back issues.
Somebody here, I think, suggested leaving these old issues in barber shops, doctors waiting rooms, beauty parlors, well, OK maybe not beauty parlors, but I think it is a good idea and a way to get rid of them 
Speaking of donations, I tried donating some WW2 documents to couple places and no one wanted them. I know the troop ship was one of thousands build ok maybe not thousands but a lot of them got built.
But this was an unofficial ships history from the captain, shipyard model of said ship and some photos. Not a single interest from the archives I contacted. Now it’s either let it sit in my closet for the next 30+ years like it sat in my grandfather’s closet, throw it on eBay for some collector to buy, or trash it. Unfortunately 2 of the 3 options end with it up in the trash eventually. The only reason I keep hanging onto the model is I figure one day I’ll run out of projects and maybe just maybe have time to build a RC version.
I know I have tossed plenty of magazines over the years ass well. I walk by every day in our school library collections of various magazines from the mid 60’s onward that are just waiting to be recycled. It pains me to lose all that history and research.
Younger people don’t seem to want things of old, so the current thinking seems to be. and generally I think that is true.
So I was quite surprised when cleaning out an old trunk last year my daughter and SiL wanted a bunch of old pictures and papers from my High school days, farm records of my live stock when in the FFA and pictures and info of my great career in the amateur rodeo circuit.
Even more surprising was when my granddaughter wanted my military dog tags, go figure.
Whoops…missed this one! Normally, I am a shameless scrounge!
