Ever Buy a Book Just Because of Its Bookplate?

I saw this bookplate and just had to buy the book.

The link is not working for me but I almost bought a book, Babbitt by Sinclair Lewis because it had Harpo Marx's bookplate. I collect Lewis but Harpo's bookplate added about $200 to the price. Still...

One of these two links "should" work:

That's great!

(the 2nd one worked, the first didn't.)

Thats pretty classic. I'd love to meet the book lover that puts that sort of thing in a book.

I bought this book, exactly for that reason. Then passed on to a friend's collection:
