'The essence of a bookplate
is that it should be an artistic thing, a source of pleasure to
the beholder, and hold a personal note that pronounces the ownership
of the book. It is simply a well-bred way of saying 'This is my
book'. — Haldane Macfall 'Upon the pages of a book, the bookplate is a quiet herald, bearing not only the name of its owner but a seal of learned pride, a token of the soul’s quiet treasure.' — Anonymous ' Now the simple fact is that bookplates belong to books, and anything that has to do with books will assuredly charm cultivated minds until time shall be no more.' — Edward Almack, Bookplates |
