Bravo, we have over 20 K books, rereading all the time. We could likely design something on computer, your designs you collect are amazing. There are also historical museuns and stores that sell marbled paper like used to be seen in binding insides of books. The past enchants if we give it a chance!
A bookplate, also known as ex-librīs, is usually a small print or decorative label pasted into a book, often on the inside front cover, to indicate its owner. Simple typographical bookplates are termed 'booklabels'.
Bookplates typically bear a name, motto, device, coat-of-arms, crest, badge, or any motif that relates to the owner of the book, or is requested by him from the artist or designer. The name of the owner usually follows an inscription such as "from the books of . . . " or "from the library of . . . ", or in Latin, ex libris.
In the United States, bookplates replaced book rhymes after the 19th century without using any money now.
Hi there, I love this style of bookplate and I would love to know what the name of the catalog is so I can search for it for my own library. Would you email me with the info when you have time? listreplies at gmail dot com
