Twenty plus years ago I was given a blue print of the Boeing Model 80, it has been in the closet where I forgotten about it until recently. This blue print is from the original micro fiche. Meas 18″ high and 6 feet long. Print is in very good condition. My problem is that I don’t know the value of print if any. Do I have it insured, give it away keep it? Any help would be appreciated.

Is it a general arrangement drawing or a blueprint of a part or component?
(If it’s a general arrangement drawing would it still be considered a blueprint since you culd not build an entire aircraft off a GA drawing?)
I’ve been told Boeing does not lightly give out blueprints any longer, presumably because of liability concerns.
I’m suerethe Museum of Flight in Seattle might be injterested in it since they have the only Model 80 existent.
I don’t see anyone building a replica anytime soon.
