Rockwell Kent 4 Vincent Rivers BOOKPLATE from the Politzer Collection 1930s USA


Condition: Good for age, tipped onto individual collector's sheet.  Some cockling at the tip-in points



L. L Politzer 1885-1954 (Ludwig Louis)


This Bookplate comes from the Louis Politzer Ex Libris collection that was housed in an Octavo ring binder. Each Bookplate was tipped-in to the page at the top of the Bookplate. Sometimes the upper corners of the Bookplate was trimmed, for an unknown reason. Many pages bear the handwriting of Louis Politzer. This collection was gathered during the years that Louis Politzer was a member of the Bread & Cheese Club, Melbourne. There were a significant number of Bookplates from Vienna and a considerable number of Jewish interest.

Louis Politzer’s most notable work was: Dr. Ludwig Leichhardt's letters from Australia during the years March 23, 1842, to April 3, 1848 / with an appendix Dr. Ludwig Leichhardt as naturalist and explorer, by G. Neumayer ; introduction by Alec H. Chisholm ; authorized translation by L.L. Politzer.


L. L. Politzer (1885–1954) was a bibliographer, photographer, translator & poet and an associate and correspondent of many Australian literary figures.
