Bookplate Society in association with Keridwen Press, first edition, 1988. Limited edition of 500 copies, this being one of 300 numbered copies for the Bookplate Society. Laminated wrappers with flaps, 8vo, 21 cm,. 35 pp, ills. From the introduction: "This brief work attempts to illuminate a shadowy and enigmatic character. The scant references that can be found Io his life and works serve only to obscure and confuse and as a result little is known of this recluse and eccentric. For many people the first contact with Austin Osman Spare is through one of his bookplate designs However, he was much more than a designer of ex-libris: he was an artist who became in 1904 the youngest ever exhibitor at the Royal Academy and was lauded by some of the most respected figures of his day; a publisher of rare editions, writing, illustrating and financing his own works, the first of which was published when he was only eighteen; and a sorcerer of the highest order who devised his own system of…

From the introduction - "As an etcher and engraver [Lord Badeley] was of professional standard. His work was regularly exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1911 and 1951 - the last plate being an ex-libris he made for Ingrid, Queen of Denmark. Some of his bookplates and other engraved prints were exhibited, in 1926 and 1947, at the prestigious gallery of P & D. Colnaghi in Bond Street, London, Wl
By any comparable standard his bookplates are now significantly underpriced. Badeley's early speciality was bookplates for ladies, and these were shown at the Ex Libris Society's annual exhibitions. Another of his exlibris, the De Lafontaine, his first heraldic plate, was published as the frontispiece to Volume 9 of The Ex Libris Journal (January 1899), whilst in the following year he was subject No.18 in the…

British Library and Oak Knoll Press, London, first edition, 1999. Cloth, 8vo, 28 cm,. xi, 352 pp, ills, facs. From the blurb: "Though seldom acknowledged, the spare-time production by Thomas Bewick of his celebrated natural histories was supported by the vigorous activity of a general engraving business involving Bewick, his partner Ralph Beilby and their numerous apprentices. Revealing a vast range of work, from banknotes and inscriptions on silver, to the making of type punches and bottle moulds, the workshop's surviving records are unique in their diversity and quantity. In recent years these records have been used in the study of engraved silver, pottery transfers and the preparatory studies for Bewick's wood engravings. But Nigel Tattersfield's account of the several hundred bookplates engraved on copper and wood, executed and printed in the workshop over a period of 89 years, is quite the most extensive and thorough in its use of the primary sources. The author's lively…

Printed wrappers, small 4to,. vi, 129 pp, ills. From the introduction: "If Edward Gordon Craig were remembered only as an artist, it would be his mastery of engraving and cutting on wood for which he would be most highly renowned. Many of his smaller-scale works in that medium were ex-libris designs. In the course of sixty-one of his ninety-six years he made over 200 bookplates, some for friends and near relations, but others for clients whose commissions helped support him in his true life's work, his vision of a new Theatre.

Description:
David & Charles, Newton Abbot, first edition, 1979. Cloth, folio, 34 cm,. 160 pp, over 250 ills. From the blurb: "In Britain bookplates have been used since the sixteenth century and they provide a continuous record of book collectors and their libraries; they often afford useful clues to the genealogist; and, since for many users they were their only foray into the field of art, they reveal, uniquely, lay response to the artistic styles, fashions and fads of their times. Lastly, of course, they offer modest but not unimportant examples of the work of some of Britain's finest graphic artists and book illustrators. Brian North Lee here traces the 500-year history of the bookplate, from its rather undistinguished and derivative beginnings in Britain, through the periods of its greatest popularity and flowering, to its diverse forms today. He offers practical hints to the would-be collector on beginning, expanding, and organising a collection; detailed descriptions to help the experienced…

The first and principal of these comprises British Royal ex-libris..., together with a handful of interesting 'association' items... Next follow a handful of bookplates of grandchildren of Queen Victoria of, or married into, European Royal houses. The third section shows bookplates of families closely related by marriage but not themselves Royal. .. The fourth classification comprises the ex-libris of non-Royal but immediate illegitimate descendants of King Charles II and King James II. Joined with these are bookplates relating to later marriages in contravention of the Royal Marriages Act, 1772; and sons- and daughters-in- law...Finally, shown much reduced in size, is a group of armorials and pictorial plates of questionable authenticity or in earlier writings wrongly recorded as bookplates which have not…
