Concept and design: Tim Sumner

To Have & To Hold is a beautiful zine series documenting bygone ephemera in the form of paper bags. Their first issue was a painstakingly scanned collection of bags from bookshops across the UK. The second, museums. Number three was somewhat queasy with airline sick bags, four covered department store bags and number five showcased food and drink bags—from bakers and butchers to fast food restaurants.

And now, tourism—an eclectic mix of castles, heritage sites and amusement parks.

In creator Tim Sumner’s words, ‘Get on the coach and come on a trip across the UK and see the sights!’

Edition of 500 (hand stickered).
