Ephemera Society of America
Variant namesBiographical notes:
The Ephemera Society of America, Inc. was established in 1980 as a non-profit organization devoted to furthering the study, preservation, and appreciation of ephemera and to serve as a link among collectors, scholars, and dealers. Over the years the society has sponsored fairs, conferences, symposiums, exhibitions, and less formal regional meetings. In addition, the ephemera society maintains an active publishing program, including a quarterly newsletter entitled Ephemera News, a Journal containing substantive articles on ephemera, several monographic studies, posters and other ephemeral items, and a members only directory. In 1994, the society published a book, Rewards of Merit: Tokens of a Child's Progress and a Teacher's Esteem as an Enduring Aspect of American Religious and Secular Education, by Patricia Fenn and Alfred P. Malpa. Membership has grown from a few dozen in 1980 to a peak of about 1,000, including both individual and organizational members. The society has a Website at www.ephemerasociety.org.
