Antiques are great—so long as you don’t think about just how many people have touched that paperweight over the past hundred years. So now, because germ-o-phobes have rights, too, there’s the UW’s Pamphlet and Textual Ephemera Collection. It’s a database of old documents, pamphlets, booklets, flyers, and other material housed in the UW Libraries’ Special Collections Division that has been formatted for digital display. There are theater programs from the 1890s, original advertisements, and the original score for the old temperance battle cry, “Don’t Marry a Man If He Drinks.” Which would totally work as a mating call on Capitol Hill.
