Baseball magazine - DIAMOND
 

Diamond magazine is probably one of the best baseball magazines ever published. It used quality paper and the articles were very well written. I have no idea as to why it ceased publication after only 9 issues. The Diamond magazine is a lost treasure.
- I have all of them in mint condition. Does anybody know if there is a market for these magazines?

If by "is there a market" you mean "can I buy all 9 issues, plus a duplicate of the October issue for $25 shipped on ebay right now" then yes, there is a market.

Woo hoo! I’m sitting on a potential $25 (less fees and shipping) gold mine! :p

I liked The Diamond, too. As I remember, it was sent free to season ticket holders. :confused:

Thanks for the info. I am undecided whether to sell or not. I'm 81 and my 50 year oldchildren are not interested in the small amount of baseball memorabilia that I have. As much as I enjoyed them I would hate to see them go into the garbage when die. Somewhere along the way I guess I'll figure it out.

You've got another 20 years to go, so don't stress about it

I loved that magazine and still have several of mine. If memory serves me correctly they went out of business because the publisher ran out of money and could not find a funding source. It was probably the first and only magazine outside of SCD that I ever subscribed to and was really pissed that it went out of business, taking my subscription money with them.

didn't it have some sort of an affiliation with MLB?

That's what I thought...I remember getting it for free, as a season ticket holder.
