Lindsay Lohan for New York February 2008, I don't know what this magazine sold for originally, but it's being sold now for $75-125 dollars. Photographed by Bert Stern, recreating a vintage Marilyn Monroe pose.

Idea of This Topic
Magazines are an interesting collectible. An issue is only published for 1 month, after that no more become available. The idea of a collectible magazine issue, is one that has a demand to own for a particular Editorial/Photoshoot or overall special content of the issue. The issue is out of publication and few copies are available, even fewer in unread, brand-new condition. I own a couple myself, purchased for the sole intention of keeping brand new.

In this topic, any magazines that have increased in value from the original cover price or newer issues that have a good possibility to increase in price. I will continue adding to this topic. Would like to see other members add to it as well.

BTW- Even with so many people collecting Playboy, even the most popular issues rarely increase in value. Most become available for $1 an issue.
