Vintage Tucson Ephemera

To begin with, below is a sampling of interesting paper items (ephemera) from the Tucson area. As a result, my passion leads me to purchase items from our area. Incidentally, these are items that I find over the years.


In specific, these old documents, such as yearbooks and phonebooks, include great old advertisements. Additionally, the early bill of sale documents show some very interesting supplies from back in the day. In short, there are such items as gun powder, windmills, wagon covers, and wagons and carriages. 


On the whole, there are some very famous local personalities on the letterhead of these documents.
