Always wanted to join SABR. Money though is typically an issue for me.

Just a question. I have a collection of every Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the year issue. The collection is currently on display at Smith Memorial Library at Chautauqua Institution in western New York State and is one part of my overall Franksonian exhibit which contains many more sports artifacts. The quality ranges from fair to good to mint. I also have the first SI issue (8/16/54) and this issue is in mint condition. I have pictures of the display but could take a more formal picture of each if necessary. How can I go about getting this collection appraised so that I can properly insure it?
Thank you for your assistance.

Dan Frank
