These are journals that any University library has multiple copies
of (probably one in the math department, one in the main library).  If
each of these issues was worth the $1000-$2000 that Christie's says it is,
we could solve all of the public university's funding problems for a century
without a problem.

I'm thinking mostly of the mid-20th century stuff here.  The 17th
century documents are probably a different matter.
