Are brochures(if I'm naming them correctly) of any value?
I have two for the 1999 Corvette. They are the silver covered ones and are in their plastic/vinyl envelope.
I have one, I think is for the 1998, which is a red cover and in a heavy black paper envelope.
I also have something in a small manila folder. It is for the 1997 and 'was' sealed with a black tab that has "Limited Access Not Intended For General Release". There is a stamp on the front also with initials of all the Supervisors and Managers of the project. Is this something of any value to someone?
I have no idea what I have and if anyone would be of interest?

People do buy the brochures - they are a nice addition to have as documentation with the car. Just post up a For Sale thread in the C5 Parts for Sale section and put a price on them. You can check on line with some vendors on a price for the brochures new and go from there.

Over on the "auction site", the brochure is available for like 8 bucks shipped for the '99 in the envelope. I just ordered a backup this past weekend. I think it has 45 hi-gloss pages. The second item you mentioned is also listed for 100 bucks by one seller, but then can also be found for like 10 bucks BIN from another seller. I think those were "press kits" when the C5 was first introduced, as I seen described in the listings.
Thanks for the replies.
I am not familiar with the 'auction' site? But will try to find it and what it is.
I will gladly let go one of the 99's and the 98(I think that is what it is?).
The 'press release' as one person labeled the manila folder thing I will let go too.
Price? I don't know as of now? And I am so naive I don't know how to make a transaction via email and such. So this will be a learning situation.
Thanks for the info given so far by everyone.
