I threw an offer at an estate sale and ended up with a few hundred golden age westerns, late 40's to mid 50's. Cool as heck, but I'm curious if there's a market for these? Most conditions 4.0-6.0 with a lot of 7's and a few 8's and 2's.

Checked out Ebay and the readers seem to sit and the higher grades seem to move, but not a lot of history there. Anyone have any experience collecting/selling G-Age Westerns? Much of a market? Boat anchors so just enjoy the read?

In general, you nailed it. Lower grades and readers don't get a lot of attention. Higher grades are still sought after. The audience for westerns overall is an aging population thus lower demand. If the tide turns and westerns become popular in movies again, these books could see the benefit.

Cool photo covers though
