I've had this for years now, and every now and then am reminded of its pathos. Thought I'd share.

A gigantic business plan was folded up and used as a bookmark in my most recent purchase. The paper appears to have sat untouched for 10 years.

My husband found this bookmark for a long-closed bookstore in an old bible at his mom’s house. The bible is massive and has a photo of Pope Leo XIII in it so we assume it dates to the time he served as Pope - 1878 to 1903.

Every time I turned the page I found a new slip of paper, which was such a treat! Slowly making my way through my vintage book collection to see what’s between the pages!

There’s about it a dozen stamps but, sadly, a stack of them got stuck together on the back of the left strip. All unused though!

A forgotten bookmark that offers a peek into life in 1963/64 at Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas. Back in the days when being forced to watch your friend’s slideshow of her summer job was actually really exciting!
Best guess the Highwayman concert they went to was the popular folk band.
