My exploration of all things that can be called ephemera, including printed paper in the form of postcards, matchbook covers, playing cards, menus, brochures, magazines, tickets, playbills, and more. The dictionary definition is pretty boring:
n. pl. e·phem·er·a or e·phem·er·ons
1. A short-lived thing.
2. Printed matter of passing interest.
Ephemera is anything printed, often for adertising purposes and once, perhaps, of limited or 'ephemeral' interest. Now emphemera is of great interest and often of great value. Not only valuable for the beautiful printed images, or the great memories of meeting people and collecting, but also valuable on the open market, at conventions or eBay.
