The John Johnson Collection is one of the most significant collections of printed ephemera in the world.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/johnson Bodleian Library, OxfordJoined October 2010
We thrilled to receive a valentine today from our secret admirers @jjcollephemera@bodleianlibs, and one designed for a bookbinder!
"Well, Miss Bookfolder you’re always folding and stitching,
You sweet pretty creature, your ways are bewitching..."
Excited to show our proof of the first Christmas card, commissioned by Sir Henry Cole & designed by John Callcott Horsley in 1843. Image available through our fabulous new @bodleianlibs picture Library bodleianimages.co.uk#ephemera#Christmas2023
We are collecting #Coronation#ephemera and would be very grateful for (printed) leaflets, posters, orders of service, programmes, etc (John Johnson Collection, Bodleian Library, Broad St, Oxford OX1 3BG). Thank you @bodleianlibs
Fascinating blog post by Jeffrey Ravel for @VoltaireOxford on French pre-revolutionary playing cards, including the uses made of plain backs: bit.ly/3MisFz1
Annabelle (our wonderful assistant) is sorting some lovely pre-1960 #ephemera. She is posting selected finds on Instagram. Do take a look and follow her

A series of bicycle (or velocipede) #Christmas cards to speed you on your way to the festivities. And for some seasonal reading how about Terry Hale's blog post on Christmas and summer annuals? bit.ly/3V8a6hO
Stuck for a Christmas idea? How about a pianola? We are delighted to have a new @jjcoll blogger, Sally Rumsey, who is writing posts about our more unusual musical instruments. Don't miss no. 1. blogs.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/jjcoll/2022/11…#ephe
It is with a heavy heart that the John Johnson Collection @bodleianlibs is appealing for printed #ephemera relating to the sad death of Queen Elizabeth II. May she rest in peace #QueenElizabethdeath
It starts tomorrow! Please don't bin your flyers, posters, programmes etc for the unprecedented #PlatinumJubilee. We'd be v grateful if you could send them (in hard copy) to the John Johnson Coll, Bodleian Library, Broad St. Oxford OX1 3BG @bodleianlibs#ephemera Thank you!
We are collecting #PlatinumJubilee#ephemera and would be hugely grateful for contributions of (non-electronic) posters, flyers, programmes, etc. @bodleianlibs (John Johnson Collection, Bodleian Libraries, Broad Street, Oxford OX1 3BG).
