Inside:
To Have And To Hold is a beautifully produced publication from The Paper Bag Archive that presents the reader with selections of that most ephemeral of objects, the paper bag. We love this zine, and yes, part of that is a nostalgic response, but largely, this beautifully assembled title acts as a permanent record of the ephemeral - and something we can return to.
Before the bag for life, before the ubiquitous tote bag, there was the simple paper bag. This issue looks at the humble bags that helped us carry about our groceries, from pick 'n' mix to butter, tea to burgers.
Expect:
To Have & To Hold is a series of editions exploring a collection of paper bag ephemera from a bygone era.
The Paper Bag Archive is devoted to the collection, conservation, and celebration of these once ubiquitous items. This archive provides a rare and timely insight, into our relatively recent consumer past.
