Myrtle’s Responsibility — Metal Bookmark

Mark your place in history with the Myrtle’s Responsibility metal bookmark, featuring original artwork by Justyn Simon created for The Biography of Earl Dewey Fisher | Episode 3: Brothers and Sisters. Inspired by Earl’s memories of his childhood, the artwork depicts his oldest sister, Myrtle, caring for him while their mother tends to his younger sister, Lillian.

As the eldest of eight children, Myrtle took on responsibilities far beyond her years. Earl later recalled that, although she was only eleven years old, she lovingly cared for him during his earliest days. This bookmark transforms that treasured family memory into a practical keepsake that celebrates family, sacrifice, and the stories passed down through generations.

Crafted from durable metal and featuring vibrant artwork reproduction, this bookmark is perfect for readers, writers, genealogists, and anyone who enjoys preserving family stories. Whether tucked into a favorite novel, journal, or family history book, Myrtle’s Responsibility serves as a reminder of the bonds that connect generations.

Slip into the quiet corner of your favorite book. This slender aluminum bookmark carries a soft, hand-drawn scene across its front — gentle colors and fine linework that feel like a page from an illustrated story. The rounded top and slim U-shaped slot gently grip a page without damaging paper, so you can pause a chapter and return exactly to the moment you left. It’s feather-light in your hand and won’t weigh down a paperback or hardcover. As you read, the muted palette and delicate imagery add a small, thoughtful touch to the ritual of reading — a companion for long evenings, travel reads, and slow mornings with tea.
