Pretty cool either way.

I'm sure a collector would be able to tell. I mean, you can get all sortsa repros of documents, like the Dec Of Indep, Civ War documents and newspapers, etc.

IT will be the price that tells the tale usually, if it sounds too good 2 B true, it prolly is.

It's possible to be original and not be yellowed if stored in ideal conditions.

I found some old WWII era newspapers under some nanolium flooring that looked as white as new when they where put down. I figured they looked so good cause the light and the air (to some degree) couldn't get to them while they laid flattened under the flooring for all those years. They were somewhat dried out and brittle though.

Even a repro is cool, How much was it?
I found some really old newspapers, I never did anything with them, in really good shape I would think they would worth more then books, after all they were designed to be disposable.

I've got a TON of old papers from 1900-1920s. They tore down a house next to ours a few years back and the insulation was old newspapers. It seemed they just stuffed the walls when they were done with them. A lot of them are really bad shape from being crumpled and dried out but some are in nice shape.

this is a real one and it's about the SS. The color is sort of yellow tan and it stinks like must. You can almost feel it come apart in your hands. How does your German paper smell and feel to the touch?

[nevada]

Did he say it has Hitlers fingerprints on it?

"onliest one of its kind, bwah"

[kevin]

The outer page has wear you can see in those photos but i snapped a couple really large pictures of the paper, before they were reduced down there were actuall size 1:1 and readable from the digital picture

Looks good.. do you have any idea what it is talking about? It looks like it is making fun of past broken French treatys.
Does it have any ads for German civillian goods i.e. beer, smokes, Black boot polish ect..

[kevin]
