Tonight when looking through some boxes at home
I found some Chicago newspapers regarding JFK death? Should I save them? Do you know if they are worth anythig? I'm thinking of giving them to my daughter.

1. Seal them up and keep them
If they are in good condition, they may be worth having.

3. There is a website
Where old newspapers are sold.

I've poked around in it but don't have the address.

Maybe a search would find it.

5. I don't believe they are worth significant amounts
I know my dad has tons of newspapers that were published throughout the course of the civil war that he bought for very little back in the 1960's. He can't get a significant amount of money now, so he's holding on to them.

6. Apollo and JFK front pages
rarely go for over $5 on ebay, in fact even newspapers from the early 1800s rarely bring over $50
