flipjack…hope you find a home for them…craigslist? If you are giving away things…freecycleseattle…I love that place. Also, I wonder if any of the local rags would be interested in vintage papers from the 30’s etc?

miws…I’ll explain this as it was explained to me…”okay, try this link– http://www.smalltownpapers.com.

If you click on the first WSH (West Seattle Herald) link, it takes you to the current newspaper site. You do not want that one.!!!

Click on the special collections archive button at the top of the home page instead.

Click browse archives button

Click state search-washington

(the archives (old papers) are the ones on the left hand side.)

When you click on the left hand side West Seattle Herald, you will get your choice of a limited amount of years.

The problem with this site is that you will find many newspapers that you will want to read,in many states. And your whole day will be gone.”

Make sense? Thank fellow commenter Gina for the link.

Hope that works for you :)
