First Match Folder
from The 52 Weeks of Firsts Podcast · host Visit Philly
Host Marisa Magnatta and Tessa York, founder of Meet Your Matches, strike up the story of the humble matchbook - a practical fix dreamed up by a 19th-century patent lawyer that sparked a global advertising phenomenon. Together, they explore how Joshua Pusey’s small design tweak lit the fuse for collectible matchbooks, branding culture, and the nostalgic connection people still feel every time they flip one open.
