I have all my Grandad's score sheets.I am glad he diddn't just bin them.
With respect I think you undervalue them.
Think about it a 3 hour game that is some investment of your time and your opponent's.
It is a historical document .
You might think on the night it is worth as much as a bus ticket but become a collector and one day you might look back and get them out and rememember what you were thinking about how you felt when the game went this or that way or when you were last to finish and you had a crowd round you.
@wycoller saidI agree with this, consider the scoresheet a memory of the game - you can't throw memories away, even bad ones!

I have roughly 380 of them, every single game I've played, stored in a filing cabinet and yes in chronological order.
It's even better if they're signed, so if you become a famous grandmaster you can make copies and sell them! 😀
