Brico Rings.
Throw-away items like this Brico Piston Rings blotter, usually referred to as ephemera, can be some of the trickiest paper items to find. They were designed to be used just a few times before being consigned to the bin, meaning that unused surviving pieces are now quite scarce, despite being printed in their thousands. Although now rare, they can usually still be found for reasonable prices, with only the most unusual items being worth more than a few £ a time. A number of motoring-related items like this now feature in the motoring collectables pages on oldclassiccar.
