Are you saying that you do.

Well, I don't have a collection book or anything like that, but I often make a point of not throwing them away, particularly if the paper is nice and/or the typography is nice. A signature on a compliments slip is also good.

I have only seen the collecting of compliments slips written about by someone other than me in an article in a printing magazine in the 1960s.

Collecting compliments slips got mentioned in a chapter of my first novel.

While writing this post I went and read the story from Chapter 51. It is over four years since I completed writing the novel, started in 2016.

These days compliments slips are often the width of an A4 sheet of paper and one third of the height of an A4 sheet of paper.

That is, an A4 Portrait sheet! A comp slip would be awfully long and thin if it were the width and one third of the height of an A4 Landscape sheet.
