Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from English Book-Plates: Ancient and Modern The first edition of this book, published in December, 1892, was specially prepared to supply the curious in the matter of book-plates with a general account of many interesting facts connected with English Ex-libris. Hitherto there had been no popular book on the subject, and none that touched upon the interest, artistic and personal, of modern examples. As that edition was exhausted within a few weeks of publication, and the type distributed, no further copies could be issued. In view of the continual demand, it was decided to re-model and re-issue the whole work. In this volume some sixty new examples have been added, including a facsimile of the Bacon gift-plate in colours and thirteen plates printed from the original coppers in place of the six which appeared in the first edition. The Bibliographical Appendix has also, with the kind collaboration of Mr. H. W. Fincham, been expanded and made to include every published account of, or literary allusion to English Book-plates that might prove of interest to the "Ex-librist."
