Invitation to TEA

[Bernie]

You are all invited over to my place for TEA (The Ephemera Album link on my page). This site concentrates on Victorian and Edwardian printing plus a couple of pages aimed at young children. There is a link to part 2 which concentrates on 20th century advertising. I have added some images as a taster.

There are also links to 2 Sooty memorabilia sites which contain some ephemera. By way of an explanation for those on the other side of the Atlantic, this has at one time been the longest running children’s TV show in the world.

Hope you can make it, you will be most welcome. Bernie

I would like to thank Tom Murphy for featuring The Ephemera Album on his blog Encore-Ephemera. Thanks also for the kind comments from Frank and Martin. Martin - the sites are running at less than half capacity at present so plenty of room for tweeking. As for favourites - well, that's why I haven't managed to specialise!

Bernie, a tidy and informative piece of work. I get the impression that your real passion is for the 20th C advertising? You will have to resist the urge to continually ‘tweek’ it to perfection. . Martin

Bernie, thanks for the invite. I stopped over briefly just now, and you are truly an ephemerist. I plan on visiting again, for a longer stay, over the weekend. With tea, of course. The clock is about to chime midnight here in three minutes, so I must put on my nightcap and retire for the evening. Tomorrow, God willing, is another day. Your sun is probably just rising and breaking morning twilight as I type this. There is the clock now. Twelve chimes.
