Bought these at a local estate sale . 62 of them dating from 1923 to 1936. Paid 25 bucks for them. I don't know if there's any value to them I just thought they were really cool. Also got 44 of these Wisconsin Conservation Bulletin Magazines dating from 1953 to 1960

I think I heard of them somewhere but have no knowledge on them.
The way I see it is you could read all them then sell them for a dollar each someone else would get a good deal and you have more trapping info and more money.

I bought a half dozen of these at a Flea Market 20 or so years ago. I think I paid 50 cents apiece. I have sold them all now at OTC Fur sales, high bid deal, as little as $5 and as high as $12 each. You just need to find the right guy. This magazine became Fur-Fish-Game in I believe 1936. The most interesting thing I found while reading them, is they almost always included a letter to the editor from what we now call an "anti". Even back then.

Several others on the shed also will have knowledge on your collection the cover's condition and the artist is the main factor in price I personally like the old stories

Used to read the WI Conservation magazine while in our 1 room grade school and HS back in the 50s and 60s. Helped get me interested in the natural world.

Many people think that but that is not the case. It was originally created by Arthur Harding and Hunter Trader Trapper ran from 1900 to 1938. At one point Harding became quite ill and sold the magazine. Later on his health improved and he tried to buy it back but it wasn't for sale. So Harding purchased Fur News and Outdoor World magazine and it became the Current Fur Fish Game magazine in September 1925.

Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

The few I looked through i haven't seen any articles on pig castration. What is the significance of pig castration articles?
