Marvelous! Have you seen Philip Hofer's book plate? It incorporates his totem—the hedgehog.

Thanks for a great selection of bookplates. "Stench with Speed" is a particularly inspired find.

The Cadbury plate is something else!
Great stuff, keep it up.

Liked them a lot -- even though some had an ominous feel. Wonder, is there a way you can put a bookplate on a kindle?

Wow!
At one time I've been also interested in the old book plate.
These are grogeous and have a classical dignity.

Nice images! I have a question to you: Is there any chance of uploading them at rapidshare ( http://www.rapidsharemix.com will ease the process) or somewhere else? Thank you.
