| Description: | The John Johnson Collection is a unique collection of printed ephemera scanned in colour by ProQuest in partnership with the Bodleian Library, Oxford, England. Housed in the Bodleian Library, the John Johnson Collection of Printed Ephemera is widely recognized as one of the most important collections of printed ephemera in the world and generally regarded as the most significant single collection of ephemera in the UK. The ProQuest digitized version is a selection from the full collection, drawn from five subject areas: crimes, murders, and executions; advertising; booktrade; nineteenth-century entertainment; and popular prints. The John Johnson Collection is a great source for studying Britain's cultural, social, industrial, and technological heritage. |
