What do you do with your old Standard Catalogs?
 

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>I saved my first edition, but have been rather inconsistent about saving and tossing later editions. They take up a lot of space, and I can't imagine they have much value.

And If I think that way it must be ludicrous. If I meet either of you one day, say maybe in St. Louis next year at SABR, then I'll have to buy each of you a beer.
