O knihe
This is a detailed treatise on old and rare bookplates, being a fascinating exploration of their origin and development with chapters on identification, preservation, selection, valuation, and much more. A bookplate (or, Ex-Libris) is generally a small illustration or decorative label inserted into a book, normally on the inside front cover. Originally, it was used to indicate its owner. This volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in bookplates, and it is not to be missed by the discerning collector. Contents include: "Introductory", "How to Collect, Preserve, Identify, and Arrange Book-plates", "Apology for Collecting", "Notes on Armorial Bearings and Tinctures in Heraldry", "German Ex Libris", "French Ex Libris-History, and Notes on French Heraldry", "Styles of English Book Plates", "Early English, or Early Armorial", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete the original text and artwork.
