Getting rid of HUGE JW library
by jukief inmy husband, alanf, started collecting jw literature about 20 years ago when he began his indepth research into the religion.
his collection includes just about everything the society has ever published, from books and magazines down to booklets, pamphlets, and handbills.
some pieces are quite rare.

Alan said a collector recently told him about three extremely rare early JW books that sold on eBay for around $40,000. And it was someone at Bethel who bought them. Crazy, huh?

I finally figured out how the PMs work. It's been a long time since I visited the site, and I never was active on it. D'oh.
Some of these items are indeed very valuable. But the market has really fallen flat since Alan was buying up things. Still, maybe someone will want some of the more rare items. We do have a lot of handbills, early books and booklets, programs, and things like that. Even an old pin from the Bible Student days. It's a pretty amazing collection to look at. The only other person I know who has something similar is Richard Rawe. I know that we're going to have to sell things on eBay, but there are SO MANY of them that even thinking about it is exhausting. It will be a lot of work. So maybe using an eBay seller isn't such a bad idea. I think I'm going to have to spend a few days going through everything and making an inventory. Probably take pictures of the rare items, too, for eBay. Yikes.

For some reason, the forum won't let me read my PMs. Will you email me if you need more information?

We'll donate it if we can't sell it. But he has invested thousands and thousands of dollars over the years, and we sure would like to get at least a bit of it back.

For a number of years now, he's lost interest in all things JW. We've decided it's time to get rid of the JW collection. I have no idea, however, whether anyone is actually interested in this stuff. For someone doing research, it's invaluable because most of this information isn't on, for instance, the WTS CD.
Anyway, I thought I'd let the folks here know that it's available. If you're interested, PM me and I can send you a list of most of the items he has. (I don't think he has a complete inventory, but it's fairly good.)

Thanks for your comments, folks.
My husband (AlanF) has been collecting JW literature for a long time. He has an almost complete collection of everything ever published (it's insane). These pieces he wanted to get rid of are a lot of duplicates. They're stuff he bought cheap over the years or people gave to him. There used to be a market for this stuff, but there isn't right now. He's talked to a lot of people he knows to see if anyone is interested in them, and there just isn't much interest. Besides, we're moving in three weeks, and there's no time to sell them piecemeal on eBay, even if someone *did* want to buy them.
But today he had an idea. One of our neighbors is a retired evangelical pastor. His church is a pretty big one here in Fort Collins. His son-in-law is the pastor now. Anyway, Alan wondered whether members of his church might be interested in having some nice JW literature to help them argue with the dubs, so he went over and had a talk with him. And guess what? He's taking everything that hasn't already been spoken for! We're going to stack everything in his garage, then members of his congregation will come over and select what they want. Then he'll deal with what's left over.
I thought that was a pretty brilliant idea. :-) Too bad Alan doesn't count time anymore. Can you imagine all the placements he'd have this month? LOL

NeonMadman, he has quite a few, and I'm sure no one is going to want all of them! So send me your email address via a PM, and I'll have him write you. Thanks!

I'm having a terrible time trying to reply to the PMs I've received. I don't know if it's my browser or what, but the text in the header is white, and I can't see any reply button. If you sent me your email address, I'll have the hubby send you an email. If you sent me a PM but didn't include your email address, will you write me again and include it? Sorry!

Whatever is left in a month or so is going in the dump. Or maybe to recycling if we can find someone to take them.Julie
