Next week, Lost Art Press titles that I’ve written will feature a new design of signature bookplate.
Designed and printed by Brian Stupayrk at Steam Whistle Letterpress & Design, these bookplates are printed in two colors on Crane & Co. self-adhesive paper.
If you purchased one of our books from another retailer and would like one of these bookplates, you can order one in our store here.

Another fine example of Chris Schwarz’s ego. This is the first that I have seen of an author advertising the sale of their own autograph. What a self absorbed boob. A skilled and knowledgable boob, but a boob none the less. Glad I have unsubscribed to the blog.
I think it’s silly, too. But customers ask for them.
We actually lose money on them. Every order costs us $3 to fulfill — plus the cost of mailing and the bookplate itself.
