ephemera

I love collecting ephemera. Bits of paper, postcards, tiny scraps of history, so fragile that it's a miracle they survived this long.

I love collecting ephemera.
Def: e-phem-er-a noun (plural e-phem-er-ae or e-phem-er-as)

1. something short-lived: something that is transitory and without lasting significance. Can be used to describe paper, letters, maps, photos, old advertisements, etc  
BTW if anyone could tell me what these guys are doing, I'd rest easier tonight.Posted by Picasa

It's nice to see someone else who enjoys ephemera. Great post. I'm not certain, but I believe the postcard photograph shows a group of men picking some type of crop--possibly cotton.
