AT ONCE GREETING CARDS AND FRAMABLE FINE ART PRINTS, OUR X-LIBRIS ARE A GIFT IN AND OF THEMSELVES. Xistis Press 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.

Many of these bookplates read Ex Libris, meaning “From the Library Of” - while others bear variations of these words in English. The adhesive on the back of the luxurious watercolor print is acid-free and archival - so that affixing it to the inside jacket of one’s book will leave only an artistic legacy. The ultra-saturated HDR ink we use is scientifically-rated to last 200+ years. The giclee printing process - performed on a high-resolution professional inkjet printer - guarantees that each bookplate may outlast the book it graces. Each card is hand-cut and inspected.

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 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.

Our first booth at the Book Expo America trade show, Javits Center, NYC 2010. We had national representatives by show's end!

Xistis Press Studio Tour Xistis Press was founded by Sarai Capael in 2004, while live/working in the Flatiron Building of Chicago's Wicker Park. It began as a literary journal of Investigative Poetics, with an online zine and several print issues. In that artists' community, art shows and staged events of featured stories from the Xistis zine were a periodic exploit. Over time, the publishing side of the venture gave way to the art of fine art printing and curating, after Capael moved to Boston and then NYC, while practicing freelance design and visual branding. In Beacon, NY, Sarai Capael purchased a professional inkjet EPSON printer and has since developed her love for printed media, where it serves the language arts - such as bookplate designs, vintage books, chromolithographic prints & other ephemera. All of our work is done by hand with an artist's attention to detail. Xistis Press plans to return to literary journalism with a judiciously selected prose element at a later stage of development. All purchases of these Xlibris stationary products will fund the long-term literary objectives of this small press dedicated to belletrists, lovers of refined language, and the journalistic ballast required to protect them.
