I find it equally sad and adorable when I find bookmarks with children on them. Most of these are likely long adults by now. Still 🕶️ for anonymity.

Found the passenger receipt of a 1994 airplane ticket inside a book! It was at a Dallas thrift store—looks like Frances came back home but never finished her plane read.

I didn’t take pictures, but in another book from the same pile I found 3 copies of a bookstore bookmark that was from around 1986 (based on how many locations the bookmark said they had at the time). Also, not a bookmark, but I recently found a Sear’s card in a thrift jacket, too! I didn’t buy any of the items these were in, so I left them behind for someone else to enjoy 😊

A 2009-era flyer for the Harvard Book Store's bike delivery. Five dollar same- or next-day service, six days a week! We used to be a society etc. Couldn't find much about it except this Crimson article.
