What do Aldous Huxley and Jacqueline Kennedy have in common? Each had a personal ex libris, also known as a bookplate. These fascinating miniature artworks were commissioned by writers, artists, politicians, nobles, and everyday readers to adorn their books and signify ownership. The Ex Libris journal, illustrated with more than 60 brilliant, historic bookplates, is the perfect place for notes and musings. This lightly lined notebook features 60 full page colour vintage bookplates. Perfectly sized to toss in your bag for book group or to take to your favourite café, this journal is as appealing to the lover of ephemera and graphic design as it is to the literature lover.

A tipped-on bookplate on a cloth cover and a ribbon marker complete this bibliophile's dream notebook. Ruled notebook, quality 216 pages. 6½ x 4¾".
