Though I don't have any time tables I might actually start collecting some of these. Would go very well with my airline fleet history stuff!

They will! Some timetables will contain flight itineraries with aircraft information (the ones that include it for my collection are the two American ones from 92, TWA 92, Western 87, both Northwest’s, and United 96).

That sounds nice. I might get one myself then!

You’ll be in a good place too. There’s a pretty well-known eBay seller that goes by dk0 who sells a lot, and I mean a lot of timetables. You could search up any airline from any year and chances are, you’ll get at least one or two results. He’s really good too with shipping, I have ordered from him twice (second order on the way yet).

I'll have to check him out. Thanks!

I used to collect timetables back in the 70's and 80's. Sadly, I've gotten out of that part of the hobby, and I no longer have any on hand.

Have you scanned them and put them on archive.org? or airlinertimetableimages.com?
I have not gotten around to doing that. Some of them are already archived online, but a good portion of what I have isn’t scanned, so I may do this when I have some free time.

Wow, you have a very impressive collection JJ! I could use some timetables in my collection, but to be honest, I would have no-idea where to start!

My recommendation is to start with airlines you’re familiar with. Not sure how they did timetables in Australia but I’m guessing someone like Qantas would have printed some back in the day.
