If you are interested in travel ephemera, especially with a focus on Europe from the 20s and 30s, you will surely want to take a look at David Levine’s Travel Brochure site.
David says:
I took the red pill, fell down the rabbit hole, and got stuck in Wonderland, and started collecting travel ephemera in 1992 while I was on my way to Prague, Czech Republic where I lived from 1992 to 1994. We had stopped in London on our way to Prague and one day in London we visited the famous British Museum. Afterwards, we wandered down Museum Street, just south of the museum, and I stumbled on an Antiquarian book store. In this store I notice a small brochure, which I would later learn were called “ephemera.”
David now has quite an extensive collection of travel related ephemera that is well organized and indexed.
One of my favorites from his collection is perhaps this 1936 one from Russia… but I’m sure each reader will find his or her own.
So if travel ephemera is within your interest area, head on over to TravelBrochureGraphics.
I’m pretty sure you will enjoy your visit.
I’m Tom Murphy and thanks for helping me give Ephemera the Encore it deserves.
