- [Bookplates, Ex Libris & Provenance](https://www.signedbyauthor.com/category/bookplates-provenance/) - Bookplates, often inscribed with the phrase ex libris, are miniature works of art created to mark ownership of a private library. Long before the modern signed first edition became a collecting category of its own, artists were engraving, etching and printing small, intimate works designed to live inside books. These plates combine authorship, identity and provenance in a single sheet of paper. This section explores the art and history of bookplates, the printmaking techniques behind them, and their place within the wider culture of book collecting. For collectors, they offer an accessible way to acquire original and often signed works on paper while deepening an understanding of ownership history and the private library as a curated space.
- [The Bookcase of Curiosities](https://www.signedbyauthor.com/category/the-bookcase-of-curiosities/) - The Bookcase of Curiosities is a corner of this site dedicated to the unexpected. Not every remarkable signed book was signed by its author. Sometimes the signature belongs to an actor who loved the work, a musician who lived inside it, a cultural figure whose connection to the text is oblique, personal, or simply wonderful. These are books with a story attached, where the signature adds a layer of meaning that no bibliographer could have predicted. This section celebrates those happy accidents of collecting, the items that don’t fit neatly into any category but are too interesting to ignore. Each one is from my own shelves, and each one arrived with a conversation, a coincidence, or an encounter worth writing down.
