Many thanks to all who are collecting used newspapers, says Fund Raiser Eric Miller. But, please, oh please, do not mix coloured or glossy paper with newsprint. On its own we get £14 a ton. Mixed - we get £0! Yes, nothing. If you do have a lot of glossy paper save it separately. It is worth about £8 a ton delivered.

This year, so far, we have collected between 10 and 15 tons of newspapers. Keep up the good work. It's all good income.

Notes:
The text in this Quainton Railway Society publication was written in 1982 and so does not reflect events in the 32+ years since publication. The text and photographs are repeated verbatim from the original publication, with only a few minor grammar changes but some clarifying notes are added if deemed necessary. The photos from the original publication are provided as scans in this internet version of this long out of print publication.
