Hardback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st EDITON. World War One produced its own quota of printed ephemera - the tickets, notices, forms and other oddments produced by every age which reflect their times more graphically than conventional illustrations can ever do. The present work brings together a wide range of such items drawn from over half a dozen countries. Much of the material is poignant, some of it is naive, all of it is powerfully evocative. Here are the pre-printed notices of death posted to a soldier's next of kin, here are the humorous post-cards sent from the front lines, the charity badges sold to promote the troops' well-being, the emotive propaganda leaflets and much else.

Hardcover. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 402 pages. 8-1/2 by 11-1/2 inches. Extensively illustrated with black-and-white photographs. A major resource on ephemera. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Light edge wear. The joy of finding an old box in the attic filled with postcards, invitations, theater programs, laundry lists, and pay stubs is discovering the stories hidden within them. The paper trails of our lives -- or ephemera -- may hold sentimental value, reminding us of great grandparents. They chronicle social history. They can be valuable as collectibles or antiques. But the greatest pleasure is that these ordinary documents can reconstruct with uncanny immediacy the drama of day-to-day life. The Encyclopedia of Ephemera is the first work of its kind, providing an unparalleled sourcebook with over 400 entries that cover all aspects of everyday documents and artifacts, from bookmarks to birth certificates to lighthouse dues papers. Continuing a tradition that started in the Victorian era, when disposable paper items such as trade cards, die-cuts and greeting cards were accumulated to paste into scrap books, expert Maurice Rickards has compiled an enormous range of paper collectibles from the obscure to the commonplace. His artifacts come from around the world and include such throw-away items as cigarette packs and crate labels as well as the ubiquitous faxes, parking tickets, and phone cards of daily life. As this major new reference shows, simple slips of paper can speak volumes about status, taste, customs, and taboos, revealing the very roots of popular culture.
