About this episode
Meet “Mr. Ephemera!” He’s Brian Coleman, avid historian, archivist, lover and preserver of pop culture memories found on paper—ads, posters, tickets and more from Boston based publications dating back several decades. He’s catalogued it all loosely in two impossible-to-put-down volumes. “Buy Me, Boston Volume 2” features more than 600 additional vintage advertisements, posters and flyers from the businesses and characters that made the city tick in the 1960’s, ‘70s and ‘80s – restaurants, hair salons, bands, bars, clothing boutiques and so much more! The stories about the ephemera that Brian has can apply to most cities on earth, so settle back and enjoy one really fun nostalgia trip!
