Catalogs: Added value?

[Harry Callahan]

When I bought my first guns(S&W Model 439 in '85 and Model 586 in '87)I also saved the S&W catalogs for those years. Does this add to the value if these guns are ever sold and if so by how much? Kind of strange to see a state trooper with a revolver as his sidearm on the cover. How times change.

Don't quote me on this but I'll bet there are people out there that would pay you for an old catalog in good condition. Now if you had a vintage gun that was unfired with a catalog from that era you'd probably really have a collectors item on your hands!
