Marketing was a wee bit different then. I can't tell yu how long it's been since my company was respectfully solicited.

Which is part of the attraction of ephemera, I guess -- they're a glimpse into a far different world.

Thanks, John! Yes, that's definitely what I like about printed ephemera--they're artifacts that provide glimpses into different times and places!
