Garie,

      I asked a friend of mine who has actually sold QSL's on eBay whether 
to list these individually or as a group, and here is his response:

>At that level, INDIVIDUALLY.
>
>Remember, SHIPPING cost is $0.39 or $0.84, so no incentive to group them.
>
>Good luck!

      That would have been my advice as well but I wanted to check with him 
since he has sold QSL's by that method.

      As for what they might fetch, you may be surprised.  Some of those 
DX'peditions did not have a lot of QSO's and, considering the age, they 
might be worth a buck or two to a collector.

      Checking on the Ham Gallery web site (<http://hamgallery.com/>) I see 
he has a list of Don Miller QSL's that he is looking for here:

<http://hamgallery.com/qsl/donmiller.html>

      He does NOT have a QSL from:

VQ8CB/A    August 1967   Quatre Bornes, Mauritius

      So, you might have at least one gem in there.  Good luck.

      You might want to check the Golden Age of DX'ing and click on the 
W9WNV link.  After you read each page, click on the MORE button at the 
bottom to continue to the next page.  Lots of good info here.

       Also, click on some of the other famous DX'peditioners and read up 
on how it used to be.
