We are pleased to announce the publication of the exhibition catalogue “Ephemera: Printed Matter and Expression” held at Keio Museum Commons.

This is the catalogue of the current exhibition at KeMCo that focuses on ephemera, especially printed ephemera that functions as a medium that spreads throughout society by being printed for free or cheap.
In addition to photos of the exhibition rooms, the catalogue includes a report on the talk event Talk Event “Ephemera: Library, Museum, and Archive” held in September 2023.

It is available for sale at the Keio Museum Commons (KeMCo) Office (4F, East Annex, Mita Campus).
