emphemera

Vintage tobacco-product ads and other related crap that a select few touched-in-the-head antique-freaks actually view as collectables.

Now that not so many people buy their cigarettes anymore, tobacco companies are gonna hafta resort to making reprints of their old now-illegal ads to sell to emphemera collectors.

ephemeral

1- Lasting for a markedly brief time: “There remain some truths too ephemeral to be captured in the cold pages of a court transcript” (Irving R. Kaufman).
2- Living or lasting only for a day, as certain plants or insects do.

"the ephemeral joys of childhood"; "a passing fancy"; "youth's transient beauty"; "love is transitory but at is eternal"; "fugacious blossoms"

Ephemeral

Lasting for a short period of time; typically one day.
Or
A short-lived experience.

The feeling was ephemeral.
The spring is ephemeral.
You have an ephemeral experience in life.

Ephemerabilia

Objects like groan tubes, bouncy balls and light-up wands you buy in novelty shops that seem great at the time but later you realise is just worthless shite.

Fred:...Why did I buy this Glowing Mickey Ears light up wand in Disneyworld again?
Lucas: Dude, I told you when you in the shop, that's totally just ephemerabilia.
