I should have the first appearances of "The Reach" as "Do the Dead Sing?" from 1981 and "Uncle Otto's Truck" from 1983. Not so sure about the 1979 interview as not positive how far back the magazines date. There may be others but this is what I turned up so far. I also believe I have the issue of Weird Book from 1984 with the first appearance of "Gramma" if anyone is interested in that as well.

You should contact Gerald Winter and Sons. I know they had flooding and have their hands full, but I think they would be helpful to let you know the value of these.

jchanic is another person who might know the value. I would definitely get lots of input on these. They could really be valuable to someone and you could make some good money.

Saw this, one person selling that Uncle Otto's Truck for 75 bucks! Do your research:

Yankee 1983 October UNCLE OTTOS TRUCK - $75.00 - Stephen King Catalog

and that was just a quick google search. It may be worth way more than that, didn't look to see what year that price was posted.

Just got home from work. I really don't have any idea what they'd be worth, Cori. I know I bought one issue off of ebay but I forget which King story is in it. I'm hoping it was the issue with Do The Dead Sing or The Reach as that's my favorite story. I would love to have them but don't have the cash right now. I would just get on ebay and see what they're going for.
