Sing it, Vincent. I guess you’d know! This is one of those folded bookmarks, with magnets on both sides at the bottom. They’re a popular bookmark design.

Bookmarked! #28: The Citadel
These leather bookmarks you get at touristy spots used to be very popular. I’m not sure if they still are. I got a lot of them back in the 1970s in the UK. This one I got at the Halifax Citadel, which is a neat place to visit.

A real treat here. Darryl Berger is a Kingston artist who makes art out of old library cards (remember those?). They make perfect bookmarks!

Bookmarked! #26: All Aboard the Ark!
I just recently found this package of children’s bookmarks. I have no idea when or where I got them, but I think they were printed in Japan. They depict Mr. and Mrs. Noah and some of the animal pairs that were on the ark. I also included the package they came in, but I don’t know what the lettering on the side of the ark says. Any help? I also wonder why Noah and his wife are so cheery and who they might be waving at.

Bookmarked! #23: Good Wood
A nice mixture of wood in this bookmark. I have a number of wooden bookmarks, most of which aren’t very practical because they’re so thick. But they look nice.
