Chuck,

I’ve found the Living Computers Museum in Seattle is interested in building their collection of paper copies of journals, and will pay for shipping. The form to offer items for donation is here: https://livingcomputers.org/Discover/Contribute-Historical-Artifacts.aspx . The more carefully you list the specific issues you have, the more likely they are to accept your offer (assuming they don’t already have the same issues). I’ve donated ACM publications and also various early PC magazines to them, plus a bunch of old MSDN CD-ROMs.
