The 96th conference will centre around the theme of ephemera with papers including treasures from the Queen Mary Indian collection, Cambridge University Library - archival material includes personal scrapbooks and souvenirs.  Further talks will discuss ephemera and the Empire: a tour through the British colonies and foreign possessions, and ephemera relating to the firework industry in Sivakasi, Tamil Nadu.

The conference fee, due on the day, will be £30.

Please confirm your attendance by emailing me on: fq@soas.ac.uk by Wednesday 12th July, letting me know if you have any special dietary requirements.

Unfortunately any cancellations after that date will incur a catering charge, for which we will have to invoice you.

The SAALG Steering Committee look forward to seeing you there!

Best wishes,

Farzana ( SAALG Secretary)
