You could always try donating them to your favorite design museum. So many firms trash or lose their discs over time that I doubt there are a lot of museums with good collections of the stuff. Stanford just accepted a collection of 28,000 video games, so somebody must want old type stuff.

Thanks for the suggestion JP. I found a museum that is interested. But they say I need to bury these elaborate CDs in a landfill so an archaeologist can discover them in a couple of hundred years. I only hope they find these mixed in with the millions of AOL CDs already in the garbage dump.

I hope that St. Bride is collecting this stuff. It would be a shame for all the early digital fonts to eventually be lost because everybody decided that tech was so ubiquitous that it was pointless to hold onto their collections.

What do I do with my Adobe Type floppy disks from 1986? They came in a very big plastic case with a speciman book. There were usually 2 floppies inside one screen and one printer. Those 400k floppies were just filled with space you know:-)
