Archival Giclee Bookplates UPDRAFT PRINTING has collected 170+ rare historical bookplates, remastered them with a vivacious, contemporary color palette, and printed them on fine art media. These original bookplates offer an enormous wealth of images. We have curated 14 theme sets with plates from similar eras or artistic styles, each a set of 12 individual bookplates. We only offer these collections as a suggested approach. Our retailers may choose 12 plates from any collection for a custom offering in their store. Many read Ex Libris, Latin for “From the Library of” - while others bear variations of these words in English.. The adhesive on the back of the Somerset Velvet giclee prints is acid-free and archival - so that affixing it to the inside jacket of one’s book will leave only a legacy of magic. The EPSON UltraChrome HDR ink is scientifically-rated to last 200+ years. The giclee printing process - performed on a high-resolution professional inkjet printer - guarantees that your bookplates will doubtlessly outlast each many books grace. Ex Libris scrolls have been discovered amongst Ancient Egyptian artifacts revealing that the gesture of marking ownership of one’s book, or papyrus as it were, is as old as the written word itself. This parallel and stealth authorship - that of the reader and the collector, the patron of the book - resurfaced in the early 12th century German monasteries. After the invention of the printing press, the commissioning of carved bookplates for private libraries marked a less-celebrated chapter of art history, a chapter which tells the story of the gradual popularization of the contemplative life.
