Ex Libris Jane Goodall - Unique Bookplate Illustration Print for Art & Book Lovers
£12.00
I made a series of bookplates for some inspirational and interesting people from history and beyond. Each bookplate is inscribed with 'Ex Libris' which is latin for 'the library of' and the name of that particular person alongside imagery that relates to them! I will be adding more designs in time so you can collect a few and pin them up somewhere.
This bookplate is dedicated to Louis Armstrong! One of the most influential jazz musicians know for playing the cornet and trumpet, his distinctive gravelly vocals and masterful scat singing. There are so many interesting things about the life of this impressionable musician but here’s a handful of facts. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀
• His first proper instrument was a cornet which he was helped to buy by the Karnoffsky family, a Jewish family for whom he worked doing odd jobs and who knowing about his troubled family life, helped looked after him. In their honour he permanently wore a Star of David pendant. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀
• He was one of the first artists to record scat singing. Legend has it that while he was recording he dropped his sheet music and started improvising on the lyrics but it was so good they just let him carry on and kept that version on the recording. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀
• He performed so much and had such an aggressive style of playing that at one point he cut his lips so badly he had to take a year off to recover. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀
• His nickname “Satchmo” is short for “Satchel Mouth” - purportedly from his days of busking on the streets of New Orleans when he kept coins in his mouth to keep bigger kids from stealing them. ⠀⠀
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀
• Louis’ biggest vice was smoking weed which he described as “1000 times better than whiskey”. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀
•He was a fan of laxatives which he used to control his weight and advocated herbal laxative Swiss Kriss even without compensation.
