Bruno Ruffo Paper Bookmarks Collection

---

I like very much to collect Paper Bookmarks (or Bookmarkers,  as someone says),  above all those of the Advertising Type.  Nowadays Bookmarks,  in the Computer Age,  have a different status,  in that they mean something different in information usage,  even if they still retain the meaning of referring to either a site or someone throughout the web,  or,  at least,  in a file.  Its original usage was that of helping a reader in find the exact page of a book after a pause in reading.  Over the years this little piece of Paper (of parchment,  silk,  or whatever else) have been used as a notekeeper,  by the readers,  and as an advertising medium by publisher and others,  eventually becoming a real "object of desire" for collectors.  I collect only Paper Bookmarks (I like very much ancient types) and above all as Book Advertisement.      I'm also member of English "Bookmark Society".
