BOOKMARKS and RIBBONS
manufactured by J. & J. Cash
J. & J. Cash made, and indeed still make, a hugh number of bookmarks, initially of silk, although now they are made from man-made fibres. In their heyday, Cash's produced bookmarks in the UK, in Australia and in the USA.
The Bookmark Society produces regular Newsletters, holds members meetings and also produces " Occasional Papers " reporting on their own research. In March 2011 one such Occasional Paper was produced, recording all the Cash's bookmarks made in Great Britain. This paper was updated in July 2016 with the addition of all the new bookmarks made in the UK by Cash since 2011.
I am grateful to The Bookmark Society (TBS) who gave me permission to reproduce the contents of these papers as the initial catalogue of this site. Being research papers, they record a great deal of information such as changes in the Cash's woven logo; different copyrights on otherwise identical bookmarks; and many other details. This site however does not attempt this level of detail, and only essential differences in design are recorded.
