In the matter of paper ephemera we are referring primarly to magazines, comic books and even dime store novels and other similar publications that were meant to be read and then disposed of later. Much of this material when first published did not register among the balance of the collecting public and endless stories exist of people who bought every issue of Superman or Mad Magazine in their youth only to discover that their parents had thrown them away years later. Today collecting of paper ephemera has become a major field driven by the Baby Boomer generation as well as those born in the 60s and 70s. Collectors use grading companies to slab (place in plastic) and grade their copies of comic books and magazines considered rare such as Golden Age issues of Batman and Superman or the earliest issues of Mad Magazine and even TV Guide. The higher the grade the more valuable the issue. The subject of grading will be addressed in the next post. “ephemera” are vintage printed or written items which originally served some specific purpose and were not expected to be retained or preserved, but which are now cherished. A few decades ago much of it was called “Paper Americana”, though ephemera is not necessarily American. Or even paper: these days the field has been expanded to include such things as tobacco tins, photographs, radio premiums, textile swatches, vinyl record albums, items made of celluloid or wood. Also included are various items which were indeed likely to have been saved, such as wedding invitations, marriage certificates, passports, birth certificates, wills, deeds, divorce papers, stock certificates, promissory notes, and many other vintage documents. rarity oddment objet oddity virtu vertu marvel found object objet d'art rara avis curiosity anomaly wonder prodigy rare bird objet trouvé abnormality malformation monstrosity Printing and Mailing: book catalog phamplet insert Sales Brochure Booklet Catalog Flyers, Leaflets, Brochures and BookletsPrint Picture Photo Framing Framed Frame Art Work Drawing Design Painting Artist Company Factory History Historic advertisement's messageOld Antq Vtg Culture Retro Vintage Antique Art Deco Groundbreaking 19th-Century1900,1901,1902, 1903, 1904, 1905, 1906, 1907, 1908, 1909, 1910, 1911, 1912, 1913,1914, 1915, 1916, 1917, 1918, 1919,1920.1921,1922, 1923, 1924, 1925, 1926, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930, 1931, 1932, 1934,1835, 1936, 1937, 1938, 1939, 1940, 1941, 1942, 1943, 1944, 1945, 1946, 1947, 19481949, 1950, 1951, 1952, 1953, 1954, 1955, 1956, 1957, 1958, 1959,1060
