The first item, held in a large envelope, is the publication announcement for The Yellow Barn Press: A History and Bibliography, along with some off-prints and a note, "Donn Here a some off prints to give you a little provenance Neil". The second is a large envelope containing ten items, primarily publication announcements and a somewhat smaller empty envelope postmarked 1987 from the Yellow Barn Press. Per an email dated July 9, 2001, " Dear Donn, There are at present six sets such as you have in the clam-shell box. I still have two here." This email is located in a folder labeled "Items in this folder were issued after orginal ephemera compilation." This folder is the third "holder" from the top. After these come a stiff envelope marked "Nothing inside. This is just filler." Then the come all the loose emphemera - 72 items of various sizes.
