I recently acquired from an estate a large lot of vintage papers. There is everything in this lot from travel brochures, theatre play bills, theatre advertisements, menus from old diners, brochures from Disneyland when they first opened, etc. My question to all you seasoned eBayers, how would you list these items? Should I list individually or as lots based on what they are? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Also, these all date from 1940's to probably early 60's.

If you want to sell them with minimium amount of work, by all means group them. If you want to maximize the amount you will get for them, I would recommend listing individually.

If it was me, and I know this is a lot of work, I would research every piece until I knew what each one is worth. Until you know that you can not effectively sell them. Items worth under $5 I would group together in catagories, items over $5 I would try to sell seperately. Anything I wasn't sure about I would throw on there and if it is anything really good, chances are it will not be overlooked. Good Luck!

Ditto . . Ozwaxc With the addition of be sure to list in categories that will do most good such as advertisements.

I would put some in small groups, others I would list separately. List at the same time and mention in your ads that you have similar items listed. There are several categories under collectible-paper you may want to check out.
