[Literature] Frost, Robert. (1874 - 1963). Bookplate. Original bookplate from the American poet and four-time Pulitzer Prize winner whose work was characterized by homey language and easy verse forms, mainly concerning life in rural New England.
White paper measuring 3 5/16" by 4 3/8" illustrated with a Woodcut Engraving designed by John Julius Lankes with a black & white image that measures 2 3/4" by 3 7/8".
The Wood-Engraving is lettered in white with "EX LIBRIS" at the top of the woodcut and "ROBERT FROST" at the bottom of the engraving. The illustration foreground shows a snowy country landscape scene at dusk with a dirt country road with wooden fence posts and a wire fence along the left side of the road leading up to a hill in the background with three trees and a farmhouse at the top of the hill set against a dark, cloudy sky.
This printed and illustrated book plate was designed by the noted Artist and Illustrator J. J. Lankes who cut the wood block for this bookplate during the 1920s while he was visiting Robert Frost and living on the Frost Farm, "The Gulley," in South Shaftsbury, Vermont, just outside of Bennington, Vermont. One of the actual bookplates that were pasted into Robert Frost's own personal books.
