Welcome to a bumper Spring 2023 issue Nº 200. We are thrilled to have reached our 200th issue of The Ephemerist. Let’s celebrate! Special occasions have long been a reason to produce a piece of print, and our call for contributions on a theme of celebration to mark this milestone has resulted in pieces on collections of long service certificates, illuminated addresses, airline special menus, bank holiday ephemera, birthday cards and royal celebration paper bags.
