Old Magazines. What do you do with them?

I decide if the old issue has something in it I want to keep. If it does I keep it. If not it finds its way to the used magazine heap.

The problem I found with keeping the mags that have an article I want and getting rid of the ones that don't is that over time my interests change.

I've got every issue of FSM in binders, including the intial preview issue.  They do take up a fair amount of space and my wife has been starting to mention that fact, particularly since my brother recently gave me the collection on disc.  Think I'm going to hang onto them for a while yet...

Other stuff taking up significant space on my bookshelves are most of the Squadron "In Action" and the Detail & Scale books, along with many years of the The Hook Magazine from the Tailhook Association.

With the proliferation of the Internet, I don't buy as many model-related books or magazines as I used to.  I occasionally sort through the old ones I have and if I can't remember why I was keeping it, I'll pitch it.
