Bumperstickersnmore Specializes in vintage bumper stickers but also features vintage books, maps and coloring books. As Debbie says in her profile: "Most of the cool old paper ephemera in my shop come from an old stash that I found in the upstairs attic of an old barn/workshop on a property I purchased a couple years ago. Lucky for me everything had been preserved just as it had been left in the eighties." You can take a virtual cross country road trip through her shop and remember vacations long past.
