Monday's Muster #25

This week I'm starting my bookmark collection. I'm going to break it up over several Mondays. Much too much for one post. These all live in a photo storage box. I don't know how many are in there. A lot. I've collected these since I was a kid.

All pictured today were bought at book or card stores many years ago. I'm sure I didn't pay more than a dollar for any of them-- some were gifts too.



Who among you remembers Euell Gibbons?  That green bookmark is mocking him.

I didn't realize I had so many Garfields.




Kinda makes you wanna get out a good book, doesn't it?  Have a pleasant day!

    I remember Euell Gibbons. Didn't realize that was how you spell his name though. Have a good week.

    My daughter has a bookmark collection too!! Well, it's not really active anymore but she has a fair number!

    I was just looking at bookmarks the other day at Walmart, they're not nearly as nice anymore and quite pricey!

    I used to collect book marks... Mine aren't in a box somewhere, they are all MOST probably STILL holding my place for me.
    Now... a book mark seems to be a little icon in the corner of my Kindle.
    :/ It's true.

    Those are amazing! Love them all. I adored reading and the accompanying (now nostalgic) book marks as a kid.

      I guess bookmarks are rather nostalgic. Hadn't thought of it that way.

    I love them! I remember nice bookmarks being a big deal for me when I was a kid. Now I buy my kids a pack of 50 crappy ones from the dollar store, or they use some old dirty receipt. That is one fantastic collection you have!

      I guess bookmarks aren't as plentiful these days. Even with all of mine, I've grabbed a scrap paper once in awhile too!
