I LOVE restaurants that have lots of old books by every table!

Excellent sandwiches, too.

I covered a painting on a canvas that I didn’t like with pages from an old coverless book that’s missing pages 📜📖🖌️

Some of the more photogenic books whose images i’ve scanned for https://www.fromoldbooks.org/ - a photo i took back in 2007.

Charles Knight’s two-volume “Old England’ on the bottom is what started it all.

Canon EF-S 17-18mm IS lens, f/5.6 at 1/13th sec, camera EOS 400D (Digital Rebel XTi).

Ex Libris: A Latin mark meaning "From the books of..."

In antiquarian fairy tales, these plates add a personal layer of history. They bridge the gap between the fantastic worlds inside the pages and the real people who once held and cherished them.

Here is a glimpse into some provenance of my collection.
