Galapagos Ecuador: Deseno Fraktal. First Issuance thus. Bookmark. Very good. Lenin Cruz. Photograph of a sea lion in the water at Galapagos Ecuador. Logo Pirata at upper left on back. Format is approximately 6 inches by 1.75 inches. A bookmark is a thin marker commonly made of card leather or fabric used to keep a reader's place in a book and to enable them to easily return to it. According to new results of the research done on the history of bookmarks there are indications that bookmarks have accompanied codices since their first emergence in the 1st century AD. The earliest existing bookmark dates from the 6th century AD and it is made of ornamented leather lined with vellum on the back and was attached with a leather strap to the cover of a Coptic codex. Bookmarks were used throughout the medieval period consisting usually of a small parchment strip attached to the edge of folio or a piece of cord attached to headband. <br/>The first detached and therefore collectible bookmarkers began to appear in the 1850s. One of the first references to these is found in Mary Russell Mitford's Recollections of a Literary Life 1852. Historical bookmarks can be very valuable and are sometimes collected along with other paper ephemera. By the 1860s attractive machine-woven markers were being manufactured. One of the earliest was produced by J.&J. Cash to mark the death of Albert Prince Consort in 1861. Thomas Stevens of Coventry soon became pre-eminent in the field and claimed to have nine hundred different designs. Woven silk bookmarks were very appreciated gifts in the Victorian Era and Stevens seemed to make one for every occasion and celebration. <br/>By the 1880s the production of woven silk markers was declining and printed markers made of stiff paper or cardboard began to appear in significant numbers. This development paralleled the wider availability of books themselves and the range of available bookmarkers soon expanded dramatically. Modern bookmarks are available in a huge variety of materials in a multitude of designs and styles. Many are made of cardboard or heavy paper but they are also constructed of paper ribbon fabric felt steel wire tin beads wood plastic vinyl silver gold and other precious metals some decorated with gemstones.
