Why are newspapers more expensive?
As we all know, newspapers have become indispensable reading materials in people's lives in modern society, covering everything from astronomy and geography to national affairs to things around people. It can be said that newspapers are used to it every day. But suddenly one day, when people want to find an old newspaper born on the same day as themselves, they find it very difficult. Because most of the old newspapers have changed a long time ago and are sold as waste. However, with the transformation of the old city, the removal of machinery, the change of managers and the restriction that "information newspapers can only be kept for 30 years", the information newspapers stored in various libraries are sent to paper mills one by one and turned into pulp. As a result, there are fewer and fewer old newspapers, especially those more than 30 years old, which are only in the hands of some newspaper collectors, leading to a sharp increase in the price of old newspapers. Some old newspapers with special significance are more expensive, such as the first issue of People's Daily,1June 946 15. 10 years ago, the auction bid was as high as 3850 yuan. A newspaper with a date of 1949 65438+ 10 1 has a price of more than 10,000 yuan in previous years.
