Book plates are page illustrations, pictures, or photographs, that are printed separately from the text of a book, but they are bound in during production. Pre-1960's, bookplates had no writing or images on the reverse. in order to save money by the publishers, the majority of bookplates since the 1960's have either writing on the bookplate, usually the title of the painting, and/or writing & images on the reverse. Due to the process used for plattings, bookplates retain the color, texture, & intensity of the original painting.
