Do vintage shotgun shells have any collector value?
Cleaning out the gun closet and the back shelf if filled with old shotgun shell boxes, cases of them. Do any old shells have collector value? Any types I should keep an eye out for? Just grabbed a box out of the first case I pulled out, Sears, Roebuck and Co. Malard Sportloads. Lots more.
If they are worth anything I might sell them, if not I'll try and shoot them.
THANKS
Many of the old boxes will have collector's value (and the value is much greater if the box is full of the original shells). Intricate art work, 2 piece boxes, and other oddities drive up the price. Check eBay and the gun auction sites to get an idea of what your boxes might sell for.
Yep, got about six boxes like that, except like new condition. Am I best of here on the EE and gun broker? I don't know how to put up pics, but there are a lot more, different brands, all vintage
www.trapshooters.com
www.shotgunworld.com
I wouldn't list them here or on gunbroker. trapshooters.com is where you will sell them for a fair price without too much hassle.
Are these full or empty boxes?
