About PosTerBooK
Some Paper Stays.
01 / AFTER HOURS
It began with old odds and ends.
This small shop grew from my affection for all kinds of old odds and ends, and slowly found its way into the especially narrow world of printed matter.
In 2018, PosTerBooK began as a small independent shop run in my spare time.
02 / SLICES OF TIME
Advertising passes. Some images do not.
Small printed sheets once treated as advertising or waste paper are, in fact, slices of time.
They hold images that moved us then, and make room for the seemingly useless things we still insist on keeping.
03 / SHEET BY SHEET
The stack began to resemble a book.
As the sheets gathered one by one, the stack began to resemble a book: a case file for our light, persistent attachment to objects.
Eventually, it found a name: PosTerBooK.
