Maximilian Goldstein Bookplate

Star of David Bookplate-5 Photo of Star of David, books, open book and Menorah in a bookplate that belongs to Maximilian Goldstein is courtesy of Lew Jaffe who posted it on his blog, which is dedicated to Jewish bookplates.
It is always a challenge to try to find the bookplate's owner – in this case my guess is that it belonged to a judaica collector from Levov who was born in 1880, who popularized the idea of a Jewish museum.
