About the Lewis Stark Bookplates

Lewis Stark began collecting bookplates as an undergraduate at UNH in the late 1920s and later used this collection as the basis for his master’s thesis, “English Literature as Reflected in Bookplate Design.”

About the Lewis Stark Bookplate Collection

The collection contains more than 4,000 bookplates (most dating from the late 1800s and early 1900s), 150 books, pamphlets and periodicals relating to bookplates, Lewis Stark’s thesis, and a small amount of correspondence between Mr. Stark and others concerning bookplate collecting.

Organizational Note

All bookplates are in alphabetical order by personal name, name of institution, or state/region, and are contained in small packets within clearly marked acid free envelopes. The labels “A1, A2,” etc., in the finding aid refer to these packets. The names of engravers or designers and the date of production are provided when a sufficient number of plates in a given category warrants their inclusion.

  1. Evan Keidel Says:

    I am not really requesting any materials from this collection, but this is a vast collection of bookplates and I have found a bookplate buried on my property and I am just looking for someone who could possibly tell me something about this plate or where it came from, it was dug up in Midland Michigan and the name on the plate is Carl Reynolds, where would be a good place to research this plate.

    Thanks, Evan

  2. Roland Goodbody Says:

    Hello Evan.

    I have looked through about 20 or 25 of the books on the history of bookplates that we have in our bookplate collection and have not found any reference to the name Carl Reynolds, I’m afraid. But I know nothing about bookplates myself, being an archivist first and foremost, rather than a collector. I think your best bet might be to get in touch with Lewis Jaffe, who has collected bookplates for over 30 years. He has a blog (http://bookplatejunkie.blogspot.com/) .

  3. Anthony Pincott Says:

    Dear Librarian – Concerning the bookplate of Dr Hugh Giffen McKinney (1869-1945) by John Williams, I have looked at my print of the plate and am not convinced that your date of 1901 is correct. Please will you check this with a strong magnifying glass and advise me of your findings. With thanks, Anthony Pincott, The Bookplate Society, London N1.

  4. Roland Goodbody Says:

    Dear Anthony,

    I did as you suggested – and you are quite correct that 1901 is not the date on the bookplate itself. It is very hard to read with the naked eye, but when I scanned it and viewed it at actual pixel size, it is quite clearly 1897. The 1901 date seems to have come from Lewis Stark, the collector, who wrote on the sleeve containing the bookplate “John Williams 1901.”

    Thank you for pointing this out. I will correct the finding aid.

    Roland Goodbody Manuscripts Curator
