Nameless LeTTer.
I find ephemera all the time in the books I go through at The Dusty Bookshelf. We keep the cool things, the interesting things. I leave original receipts in the books for the new owner to delightfully (or annoyingly?) find. We've found, probably, thousands of bookmarks over the years. In Manhattan, there is a large shoebox full of these bookmarks. So now there's this site where you create a particular bookmark for a particular book and put it out there for someone to find. It's akin to the project where people put whole books in public places with notes for people to find and read and then put in another public place for someone else to find and read. It's sharing literary love.
Then there's another site: FOUND Magazine. Ephemera. Life left in books, in records, in life.
