I've always thought ephemera included old yellowed paper, but recently someone complained about me sending her "junk". Does the "official swap definition" of ephemera include pics from old high school yearbooks, old book pages, old magazine ads or not? What about old taken-apart jewelry? Can the postage stamps be used?

My two packets are ready to go as well :) I would prefer not to get any book/magazine pages though. Thanks!

Toni - I always thought book and magazine pages fit the criteria...but sometimes I've received pages that were really not very interesting. So I think it depends...I'd be happy to get old yearbook pages, funky vintage advertisements,jewelry bits...so maybe you and I will be lucky enough to be partnered!

Kimberly - You're going to be strong on enforcing the rating requirement? I ask because there is one low rated swapper that I am concerned about (way, way below 4.5...)

Okay, I'm in. On the swapbot forums there is a thread RE ephemera and I have enough stuff that isn't old and brown that qualifies as ephemera (like tickets).
