Author is George Montague Ellwood, born 1875, died 1955, British. Not free, the CC license is absurd. Pieter Kuiper (talk) 09:45, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
- Ellwood was the author of what, exactly? --Fæ (talk) 10:42, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
- Of this ex-libris. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 10:45, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
- No, that is the name on the bookplate. It does not make him the designer or the author of the plate itself. --Fæ (talk) 11:19, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
- Of this ex-libris. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 10:45, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
- Keep Based on an apparently flawed nomination. --Fæ (talk) 11:19, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
- So - who is the author of the bookplate? That is the real issue. If we can establish who that is it may well be CC. However the prime facie evidence to date is it is the person named I would suggest. --Herby talk thyme 11:37, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
Deleted: I think Pieter has it right here. GM Elwood is the name in small print at the very bottom of the plate, not the Ex Libris name. It is, presumably, the author of the bookplate. As Pieter says, he died in 1955. . Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 19:34, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
