FOR SALE

There is a great amount of historical, interesting, and fun bodybuilding memorabilia available to the collector who knows where to find it. Much of what you see on this very site is from sources acquired second-hand over the years from garage sales, flea markets, and ebay.

In my unending quest for reference material with which I can better this site I've acquired a few invaluable resources of books, magazines, pamphlets, and videos which I'd like to impart to you, the Iron Age reader.

Iron Age is, in no way, promoting the sellers listed below and does not benefit from transactions with the sellers in any way. Likewise, we do not vouch for the sellers themselves. However, each of the sellers has a long standing reputation as a dealer in bodybuilding memorabilia and would most likely prefer to keep a clean reputation and keep on profiting from their businesses rather than not deliver on an order.

Happy hunting!

And, of course, there's ebay, where you can find almost anything related to bodybuilding if you are patient and willing to outbid the other bodybuilding fanatics out there. It's very hit-or-miss on ebay. I've seen old Muscle Builder/Power's featuring Arnold go for more than $30 a pop yet I've grabbed some great old IronMan's for $3.00. Like I said, patience is key with ebay. Who knows? You may even find yourself bidding against me!
