I have a large collection of Black Music which then became known as Black Music & Jazz Review and finally just BM.
Does anyone know where I could sell these for a reasonable price  |

What years are we talking about Pete and did you want to go down the e-bay/auction route? |

The `70s issues would be most valuable, with `73-`76 being particularly desirable. You could try selling them individually, either on e-bay auction with a starting bid of £8 or as Buy It Now's as £10 each, or as a complete collection (maybe separating the `70s and `80s out). It largely depends what you want to get for them - selling them singly, I imagine you'd be sure of getting takers at around the £5 mark - or whether you simply want shot of them.
There used to be a business name of Backnumbers which sold old music magazines and papers. Not sure if they're still going, but that's where I got nearly all my BMs from in the mid-`90s. |

Dear Pete,
Anything with Carl Gayle in them. Which was from late 73 - December right up to 1977.
And like Marc said - they must be worth £10.00 each minimum!
Historical documents.
Take care, all the very best
