I have had this old news paper in my lock box for a long time now. I sealed it up tight. It is the Milwaukee journal sentinel (our cities main newspapers). It the is edition from june 4 1965. The day of the the first space walk (which means its the headliner). I was curious if anyone things that it is worth any money.

If it has been preserved well enough...I'm sure it's worth something to somebody.

I have a bunch of newspaper front pages from 9/12/01.
They'll never be worth anything, 'cause I'm sure 1000000 other people have them, but I can show my kids when I'm old and be like..."I remember when this shit happened!"
And then they'll tell me to shut up, 'cause the new Music Holo-Video is on and old people suck.

I went to an antique convention (it was next to the jacuzzi on, give me a break) and I snagged a newspaper for $10 that was headlining the bombing of a child's hospital for special needs children by the germans. I'm pretty sure it was the first day of WWII, but I'm too lazy to get up and find it.
The paper was pressed flat to a board of cardboard and shrink wrapped. You should do that ASAP (if it's not already too late) because that paper will eventually become so fragile that when you try to unfold it to read it or just look at it, it'll crack and tear.

It was the first space walk, not moon walk. Its also the day that marry poppins debued in theaters, and some other old movey. Many many wierd things in there. Like a AD for 5,000 mile warrenty on a car. Ha
I guess I could try to put it on ebay.
