Hoarder or Historian?
Melbourne Rare Book Week
This talk will focus on a selection of ephemera collections, teasing out the theme of how our history is preserved. Join Mandy Bede, President of the Ephemera Society of Australia, as she shows examples of printed Australian ephemeral material from the sublime to the mundane. Regardless of how these items have been collected and preserved, or by whom, or for whatever reason, they form part of the remarkable commonwealth of documents that record our past.
Presented by: Ephemera Society of Australia at Royal Historical Society of Victoria, 328 A’Beckett Street, Melbourne Morning tea will be served immediately following this event.Subscribe to events
