Collectors’ Marks (1883)

Important reference work on collectors’ marks, particularly those related to prints and drawings. Fagan, a print expert and British Museum curator, compiled this catalogue to identify and document the marks used by collectors, dealers, and institutions. These marks are typically small symbols, monograms, or initials stamped on artworks, serving to authenticate provenance and trace ownership over time. Condition: vellum covers a little worn to edges and lightly soiled. Spotting to endpapers, pastedowns, prelims and to frontispiece by the author.
