Book excerpt: Bookplates were made to denote ownership and hopefully steer the volume back to the rightful shelf if borrowed. They often contained highly stylized writing, drawings, coat of arms, badges or other images of interest to the owner. Theearliest known form of a bookplate originates from roughly 1390 BCE, in Egypt. They became popular throughout Europe during the Middle Ages, and since have appeared throughout the world, being especially popular in larger personal libraries and book lending societies. William Goodrich Bowdoin (1860-1947) wrote passionately and a great deal on the art of books, including book plates. His works include American Bookbinders, published in 1902.

Book excerpt: An excerpt of a review from The Book Buyer: THE book-plate, as it is understood nowadays -- that is, the label, printed or engraved, heraldic or otherwise, intended to proclaim the ownership of a book when affixed to its board or fly-leaf -- made its first appearance, according to Egerton Castle, in Germany. The oldest known ex-libris dates from about 1450, and is that of Johannes Knabensperg, the design, in a rough wood-cut, showing a hedgehog disporting itself with a flower in its mouth among strewn leaves. The oldest ex-libris actually connect with a printed book dates from about 1480, the design, an angel bearing a shield, having the same motive as Thackeray's drawing for the book-plate of his friend the poet and the translator of "Rubaiyat of Omar Khaiyam," Edward Fitzgerald. Durer designed at least book-plates, and exerted a lasting influence in the art. The use of the ex-libris was general among German book collectors before the custom was adopted in other countries.
