Bookplate
First Edition
Bookplate. Condition: Good. Format is approximately 4 inches by 6 inches with an image size of approximately 3 inches by 5 inches. This shows signs of having been affixed to a book. This is an intricate and compelling design with a Moby Dick theme. There is an oval center image with the word Pequod at the top, a hand with a tomahawk coming out of the ocean, an ocean bird, a harpoon, and other images. At the lower left corner is a mermaid and the lower right is Nepture with a trident. There are musicians at the top corners. The text around the oval reads "and so the bird of heaven his imperial beak thrust upward folded in the flag of Ahab went down with the ship" . This appears to come from chapter 135, the third day of the chase. This may have belonged to the Samuel Robinson Odgen who wrote Vermont Year, Twelve Verses, published in 1967. A bookplate (or book-plate, as it was commonly styled until the early 20th century), also known as ex-libris (Latin for "from the books (or library) of"), is usually a small printed or decorative label pasted into a book, often on the front endpaper, to indicate ownership. Simple typographical bookplates are termed "book labels". Bookplates typically bear a name, motto, device (coat-of-arms), crest, badge, or another motif that relates to the owner of the book, or is requested by the owner from an artist or designer. The name of the owner usually follows an inscription such as "from the books of." or "from the library of.", or in Latin, "ex libris". Bookplates are important evidence for the provenance of books. In the United States, bookplates replaced book rhymes after the 19th century. The earliest known marks of ownership of books or documents date from the reign of Amenophis III in Egypt (1391 1353 BCE). However, in their modern form, they evolved from simple inscriptions in books which were common in Europe in the Middle Ages, when various other forms of "librarianship" became widespread (such as the use of class-marks, call-numbers, or shelfmarks).
