The correct answer is A) us; indirect object.
The pronoun has to be us because we are looking for an object, and we is a pronoun used for a subject.
Also, it is indirect object because when there are two objects in a sentence, the rule is that the first object is indirect, and it is followed by a direct object. The direct object in this sentence is the old newspapers, which means that the indirect object is John and us.
