Whilst wandering back to our hotel one day of our trip we noticed a market place that said it was open the next day, so on saturday morning we headed down not knowing what to expect and it was incredible. Firstly it was huge and all the stalls had such a wide range of old books, magazines, prints and posters. It was my ephemeral heaven. I spent a lot but I did get a few bargains and I just think I would never get these things anywhere else and they are too beautiful to not get. Although we didn't speak french all the stall owners were lovely and tried to speak to us in English and explain where things were from etc.
I love collecting ephemera like this, not only because of the history but they are often so beautifully designed, with amazing typography and handwriting.
I cannot wait till I have my own place so I can frame and display all these things properly!
