Stephen Hawking's bookshelves and windowsills were also used to display greeting cards, invitations, and similar transient items. In contrast to material found inside books, the ones that stand by themselves in the office tend to be relatively recent, dating mostly from after 2015. They relate to people, encounters and events in the last years of Stephen's life.
