LISWire: Dirty Rotten Scoundrels by Douglas Adams
0October 25th, 2010LISWireDouglas Adams has written a very informative article about literary forgeries and hoaxes in the Oct.24th issue of Confessions of a Bookplate Junkie
Http://bookplatejunkie.blogspot.com"I am a novice when it comes to the bookplate, but as a book collector I have come to appreciate the art and provenance that a bookplate can impart. I collect books on literary forgery and this encompasses, for me, fakes, frauds, forgeries and the occasional hoax. In a collection comprised of about 400 volumes, there are a number of books with ex libris. A few of my personal favorites are displayed here."
The blog is published every Sunday . Articles about book collecting and ephemera are always welcome.
