Hi Everyone,

Does anyone here remember the National Prospector's Gazette published by Exanimo (Karl Von Mueller) with the editor listed under his own name (Dean Miller)?

I was going through some of my stuff and found several issues:
Volume 7, number 4 - Feb Mar 73
Volume 8, number 4 - Feb Mar 76
Volume 8, number 5 - Apr - May 76
Volume 8, number 6 - June - Jul 76
Volume 9, number 4 - Feb - Jul 77
Volume 9, number 5 - Aug - Oct 77
Volume 9, number 6 - Nov - Feb 78
Volume 10, number 1 - Mar - May 78
Volume 10, number 2, June - Sep 78
Volume 10, number 3 - Oct Mar 79
Volume 10, number 4 - Mar - Aug 79

and

Exanimo Express - Feb 66
Exanimo Express - Nov 66
Exanimo Express - Oct 78

They are old, yellowed, and small newspaper type paper.

Any idea what these would be worth from a collector standpoint?

Thanks,

Patrick

There's no shortage of old treasure magazines up for sale. But don't recall specifically seeing those particular rags. They're more like a "newsletter", than a magazine. There are collectors, (of the magazines, newsletters, etc...), but not many.

Can you scan those ones from 1966, and post to this vintage detecting forum please?:

In doing so, I bet you can make a shameless pitch for a "for sale" notation, and ....... being as how it's "on subject", and being as how you posted samplers of those oldest ones, it should pass muster.

I remember reading some of Karl's books. Sure list them somewhere and someone may buy them. There are collectors for about anything.

Thanks,

I'm not interested in selling them. I was curious what they are worth. I think it may be worthwhile to seek out others and add to the collection.
