New article on British ephemera from the 1980s is Johnson Photo Envelope (1980) https://t.co/quW2LYS8oj looking at a world before digital photography, where you had to post your film off to get it developed. A slower, clumsier time.
New feature on the Ephemeral 80s site is this 1983 Butterkist Popcorn Packet https://t.co/hjvmfNb1xj and, yes, it was dug up by a fox after 40 years underground.
@hywel82 I'm planning to track one down, it looks amazing. Tried looking on Ebay earlier, but got distracted. Think there were a few Durabeam things on there.
It's time to flick through the Boots Freetime Autumn 1985 magazine https://t.co/HDZNqeWlNH featuring toys, technology, gruesome recipes and some curious tracksuits.
Let's take a look at the EMAP company newsletter from December 1985 https://t.co/crf4N2e28w featuring arm wrestling with Brian Blessed, Linda Lusardi, ghoulish Halloween costumes and lots of advertising executives.
Thanks for the follows so far! It's a niche project, but should get more interesting as time goes on and I can feature more examples of long forgotten British life from the 1980s.
An utterly delightful slice of 80s Ephemera, here's a copy of the Lacock Parish Magazine from September 1984. Read more at https://t.co/h9HxPK99Hr and get ready for the upcoming church fete.
It's time to head back to 1986 to take a look at my collection of Cadbury's Wildlife Bar wrappers https://t.co/iiIhAYQhk4 and it's fair to say they're some of the most beautifully illustrated wrappers you'll ever see.
More vintage madness on Ephemeral 80s as I discuss this majestic One Day Bus Pass poster from 1985: https://t.co/smLm3y5rYI which, one day, I plan to have framed on my wall to delight/confuse any visitors.
