Not sure if I'm asking this in the right place or not... While cleaning out my closet, I came across a smallish stack of old game manuals, a couple of boxes, and even a few disks. Does anyone have any interest in this stuff, or should I just toss it? Most of it is from the early 90's - Tegel's Mercenaries, Crime Wave, King's Quest III, Codename Iceman, Test Drive I & III, a few others.

This thread might help, if you want to contribute scans of them to the site:

http://www.abandonia.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=4335

But maybe you should PM Tom Henrik for more info, to make sure you don't scan something we already have

But NO, don't toss them - I just recently rediscovered my own oldgames stash - original boxes and manuals are treasures!

Yup. And if you'll want to get rid of them afterwards, use eBay or something like that to sell them - at least they'll be worth something to the buyer.

Personally, I feel quite ashamed that I managed to lose several manuals and boxes over the years... like the one for Battle Isle or reference sheets for Lords of the Realm. Aww.
