I found these old printing presses from Chicago Tribune from 1918 "Yanks go to Battle" and "Great War Ends" Is there a market for these or museum that would display them? I am not sure if they have any value or market. Any suggestions?

Any chance you still have the old printing press plates? I think you had two from 1918. I'm looking for any, definitely don't need to be any significant history on them, just basic newspaper column articles. I like the look of the old newspaper metal printing plates.

Yes I still have them. I have the following plates:
All Plates are from the first page of the Chicago Tribune are as follows:
April 9, 1862 – All Text no heading
April 1, 1918 – Yanks Go To Battle
Nov 14, 1918 – Great War Ends
Nov 10, 1916 – Its Wilson! California His! Victory Assured
March 25, 1918 – Huns Reach Somme
If you send me your email, I can send you pictures of all of them for your review. I can be reached at management@bernatservices.com
Thank you.
