I have every issue ever made. Started collecting them a long time ago and now have all of them. The first ones have been well used but after a while I started getting one for the collection and one a few for usage. Most of the ones in my Red Book collection have never been opened. Just sit on a shelf getting older.

Getting older and hopefully increasing in value.

I'd buy as many 1964 Kennedy half dollars for 50 cents as I could find. I also have a stack of old Red Books going back to 1965, minus a few from the 80's,

Very cool okiepb! I would like to find one from my birth year 1962. The oldest one I have is from 1963 that my grandpa gave me and on the inside cover the price of the book is noted as 1 dollar, in pencil even!

I've got the 32nd Edition, 1979. It is neat to look through and see the price difference. Not sure of the value on the book. It's in really good condition. I'd sell it.

Liberty Street software shows 1979 is worth $5.88 in mint condition used it drops to $3.80. Makes you wonder where they got the 88 cents from?

My oldest Red Book is 1981. I really wish I had taken better care of it. I also have a 1985, 1993, and 2000 in the original hardcover version (all three still in excellent shape). All of my recent Red Books (2007, 2009, and 2011) are the spiral bound version.
