Any insight is appreciated.

I have a large lot of Volvo accessory literature. Last I counted I had 230 pieces or so, ranging from single sheets to catalogs that are hundreds of pages, some are VERY unique. My question is how would you go about selling such a lot?

I don't want to onesy twosey it through ebay as I don't want to have to list things separately, pay all the fees etc. I also don't want to sell the lot to an auto literature dealer as I know I'll get pennies on the dollar, (same reason I have my extensive Padres Baseball card collection).

There are pieces in the collection that are worth $100-$250 by themselves. I figure at $10 a piece I have around $2000-$2500 worth of literature. What would you guys do?

Should I just put the whole lot on ebay?

I also have a very unique lot of film negatives that came from a company in New Jersey that was hired by Volvo to take all their press pictures from 1968-1973 or so. I have negatives of several stages of the artwork being done for a 1973 accessory brochure. Really neat owning the literature and pictures of it being drawn,(as well as owning a 73 142).

I'm also curious about having posters made from some of those negatives. Anybody have experience with maybe a website that does that?

TIA
