I'm not sure if any of you are into vintage paper? I thought that I might share some of my Eames ephemera here from time to time.
First off is a stack of payroll stubs from the Eames office circa 1959-61. I removed the employee's name. He was earning $1.50 an hour. At the time a fiberglass shell chair cost about 2-3 days salary, although he probably received an employee discount.

I'd love to see any emphera...
I'd love to see any emphera from eames or other designers of the era. Things like this can be a godsend when doing detailed research - dates, addresses, prices, official names used, etc..
Anything you have like catalogues, old advertising or promo materials, spec sheets or price lists I would be very interested any seeing.
Please post whatever you'd like to share!
