Ephemorabilia

What is Ephemorabilia?


1.

Items which usually have a short lifespan, or fleeting existence, but which become keepsakes. Different from souvenirs or memorabiliia (which usually have an intentional association with a place of origin, or an event) ephemorabilia was never intended as such.

Mary kept a cigar box full of quirky ephemorabilia from her travels: a vial full of snow, pressed leaves and flowers, the shed skin of a snake, ticket stubs, and gumball machine toys.
