I’m often drawn to ephemera such as these documents featured on GraphicsFairy.com. I especially like those in languages other than English because, when I don’t understand the wording, I don’t get hung up with subject and focus entirely on the graphic forms.
Chuck,
Scott Lewis, a fellow Richmonder here. Like you, I also love ephemera. If you have not heard of it, there is a place called Whitings Old Paper at the Mechanicsville flea market that has hundreds of thousands of pieces of ephemera in the form of old WW1 & WW2 ration books, posters, magazines, old photos, etc. I make at least one trip per year up there to spend hours digging through the boxes. My walls are decorated with many of my purchases. Cheers, Scott
