Anyone collecting airline-branded in-flight magazines?

Started by SLee961 2 hours ago 2 replies 9 views
So I've been cleaning out my garage, and I found a box of old in-flight magazines from the 80s and 90s. Mostly from airlines like TWA, Pan Am, and a few others that don't even exist anymore. They're in surprisingly good shape, and flipping through them is like a little time capsule. The ads, the articles-it's all pretty retro and fascinating.

I'm thinking about starting a collection. But I've never really heard of anyone collecting these. Are they worth anything? Or is it just a cool piece of nostalgia? Also, how do you guys store your paper collectibles? I'm worried about them getting damaged over time.

Would love to hear if anyone else is into these or if I'm just a lone weirdo with a pile of paper! Any tips or resources would be awesome.
I've got a small collection myself! It's mostly for the nostalgia factor, not really about value. Some folks are into airline memorabilia, so you might find a niche group interested. For storage, I use acid-free sleeves and keep them in a cool, dry place to prevent yellowing and damage. It helps a ton. You might want to check out some online groups or forums dedicated to vintage airline stuff. You'd be surprised how many people are into it.
