11. Save it in a dark plastic bag ..away from sunlight .... also the paper is not acid free |

so it will deteriorate over time ... not sure if there is a fix for that ..
but definitely keep it away from sunlight.

4. I received a call from my son who goes to school in upstaste NY. He asked me to buy |
|
newspapers for him. I bought a copy of the NYT, NY Post(yuck),NY Daily News (semi-yuck) and our local county paper. All of the covers were beautiful!!! Even the Post.

6. Never mind - I was able to order some by phone |

Had to wait about 30 minutes before getting through, but it was so worth it!

(800 NYTimes) - when I called yesterday they were $5.75 apiece. I ordered 2 copies to be sent first class mail - total was $16-something - not bad. Good luck!

8. Here in NY, when papers are left on the stand after the day, they are wrapped up |
|

and collected by the distribution company. Sorry!
But, they are selling them now on eBay...I heard about that on the NY news this morning. Some copies have gone over $100. If you wait a few days, the price will probably drop to the $10-$15 level, due to oversaturation after the initial insane buyers get their copies.
