Vintage Ephemera

Ephemera is a item that was created to only have a short life span.

Such as advertising paper, receipts advertising flyers ,ticket stubs ,hand written notes etc, printed or handwritten manuscripts.

These items are now rare collectibles. Most since they were created to have a short life were made of poor quality papers and now show the wear and tear of its longer life than expected. Expect tears ,tape marks ,creases etc

Many are sought out by Genealogists and really only have a value to a few people who desperately want them.

Many people frame them

Some dirty , some clean . Most have a old and sometimes musty smell and are not for people with a sensitive nose.
