Dear Ex Libris members,
In the process of putting a bookplate display for the months of Nov-January
I came across bookplates owned by Hitler and Mussolini.
Can any member tell me when the artist Willi Knabe executed the design for
Hitler. The swastika is prominently displayed.
I have no record of who designed Benito Mussolini's bookplate or when. A
note scribbled on the back reads: "woodcut, c.1930".
I would appreciate any leads.
Sincerely,
Donald Kerr
