Event Details

The Ephemera Collection presents: Vintage Valentines and other Historic Tokens of Affection

Love is in the air during February and historic tokens of affection will be on display at the California Historical Society for a special one-night event. Bring your sweetheart for a viewing of vintage Valentines alongside historic menus and trade cards from local purveyors.

Indulge in sweet treats and wine while perusing the unusual collection of romantic and amusing mementos of love selected from the CHS’s permanent ephemera collection.

Part of California Ephemera Project‘s launch:

The project provides access to the finding aids of ephemera collections at California institutions. The ephemera collections span from 1850 to the present, and contain advertisements, announcements, brochures, catalogs, menus, pamphlets, billheads, theater programs, clippings, bylaws, flyers, tickets, travel guides, and more.
