1 Published monthly by The Ephemera Society of America, Inc. OCTOBER ESA 32 EXHIBIT PROPOSAL DEADLINE January 1: In the past, we have had a variety of unrelated exhibits on display during our annual conference and show. Our president, and exhibits chair, Art Groten, thought that, this year, we might try something new. In keeping with our theme of how ephemera reflects social history, he calls for 20 singleframe exhibits (either 16 standard pages or panels measuring 33x44) on various topics whereby ephemera informs a social value. It might be a personal value, like honesty or romantic love, or a family value, like thrift, health, kinship or memory, or a societal value, like patriotism, unity, justice or peace. These are but examples of possible themes. The exhibit should not be merely a show-and-tell but a story, with a clear beginning, middle and ending. One may use a single type of ephemera or a variety. The exhibits are non-competitive. Each exhibitor receives a Certificate of Appreciation from the Society. - Seattle, October 8 & 9: 24 th Seattle Antiquarian Book Fair. - Queens NY, until October 14: member Michael Ragsdale s exhibit of 9/11 ephemera. - Grapevine TX, October 15 & 16: North Texas Book & Paper Show. - Northampton MA, October 16: Pioneer Valley Book & Ephemera Fair, FlamingoEventz@metrocast.net. - San Marino CA, October 21 & 22: conference at The Huntington, Civil War Lives coconvened by Gary W.

4 John s local Tucson newspaper: - Sacred Trash: The Lost and Found World of the Cairo Geniza, by Adina Hoffman and Peter Cole, chronicles the researches in a wealth of hidden 10 th to 19 th century ephemera found in an Egyptian synagogue. Especially interesting are the biographies of the scholars who worked over the last 120 years to reconstruct documents from fragments, and a lost culture from ephemera. - To Put Asunder: The Laws of Matrimonial Strife, by Lawrence H.

Send answers to printroom@librarycompany.org. Ephemera on Line: - SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS? (from Vice President Nancy Rosin) One of the great joys of collecting ephemera is virtually everything that follows the thrill of the acquisition process. Like Alice s adventures in Wonderland, through curiosity, one is apt to discover a fascinating new world of friendship, unending pleasure, and undoubtedly, wonderful surprises. How many exist? Have you ever seen? What year was it published? Who was the artist? Just a few of the questions that often confound us all. Knowing that others collectors, dealers, museums and librarians may have the same questions, or perhaps have discoveries to share, can be the start of a valuable way to enrich our experience. Study groups have been very successful in the philatelic world, as a way in which people share, through or local gatherings, their common interest. Let s all try to add a new dimension to our world of ephemera, connecting with fellow members and creating friendships that touch us, though our special bond. Our
