Uncle Jazzbeau’s Gallimaufrey

You gotta love the Web! There always something for somebody. An aside in my last entry immediately drew a response from reader, Greg Kendall, who is the proprietor of the Seven Roads Gallery of Bookseller’s Plates, Binder’s Tickets, etc., etc. I almost didn’t mention the Munksgaard bookseller’s plate, but I did, and then spent some pleasant time looking at Greg’s collection. Immediately thereafter, I went into the Bibliotheca Byssina and started rummaging around taking down older books at random from the shelves, opening them and looking for any plates which weren’t in his collection. Finding some, it also forced me to finally get the scanner out of storage, download new drivers, and scan the plates. (I’ve been meaning to scan and post pictures on this blog.)
