Ex libris Paul Butler, showing an eagle standing on a crown. "Nearly fifty years ago I began amusing myself with books by adding an occasional print. Private illustrating was almost an unknown passion in this country at that time. What I mean by privately illustrated books is, books in which prints are inserted which do not belong to the book, but which are pertinent to the subject treated. Under this method, 'Sometimes the pictures for the page atone; / And the text is saved by beauties not its own.' - page 29."
