One of the many Newspapers I purchased recently is of April 16th 1912 The Titanic sinking.......And one dated April 17th 1912 The day after....Now here's the problem...........In two years time its 100 years since that fateful day so DO I hang onto these papers and sell in March 2012 or do I sell NOW? the thing is If I leave it until 2012 ALL the Copies of that day will be given out with Modern papers! Would that de-value an Original?

I've seen it said that things like Nelson memorabilia fetch higher prices during landmark anniversary years so quite possible the papers would be worth more when there is raised interest in depicted events.

BTW. You really need to clear your loft out more often. Or did you get them from a dentist's waiting room?

it might be worth phoning a good auction house and picking their brains a bit
