Excerpt from Ladies' Book-Plates: An Illustrated Handbook for Collectors and Book-Lovers In this little monograph an attempt has been made to trace the history of women's plates and to give some account of those ex-libris which seem to call for special attention, either from the interest attached to the owners, or for the intrinsic merit of the designs. With the assistance of many well known collectors, a list of ladies' plates has been drawn up, and however imperfect and faulty, as the first of such lists must always be, it is hoped that it may yet prove useful to collectors of these dead leaves. In describing a lady's plate, armorial has always been employed to signify that the arms are on a simple lozenge, in every other case the words shield or oval have been added. The correct inscription on each plate, as far as can be ascertained, is printed in italics in the list. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Originally published in 1895. Introduction: For four hundred years the fashion for Ex libris has waxed and waned. The eighteenth century witnessed, perhaps, its most glorious phase. Although at present, there is a universal revival of the art, in some ways the modern book-plate is found wanting. This is certainly not from lack of inventive and imaginitive power on the part of the designer, but from the inferior methods of modern processes, which often spoil the work of the artist......This comprehensive guide is extensively illustrated throughout and will appeal greatly to any historian. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.

Excerpt from First Editions of American Authors: A Manual for Book-Lovers Since it became known that for a few paltry dimes our fellow-hunter acquired that genuine prize, poignant anguish has been experienced by the rest of us, and none has suffered more than I; for though I covet not the responsibilities of a scapegoat, God knows I would cheerfully bear, instead of that man Way, the burden of shame resulting from having done a bookseller. It is true that I have one of these first Ballades; but what of that? Can an appreciative man have too much of a good thing, - when that good thing is a rare first edition?
