Multiple title pages

edit

Some books have more than one page with the title on, often one with just the title, and another either more ornate or with the author, publisher etc. on it too. Are both of these title pages, or are the separate terms to distinguish between the two? --xensyriaT 08:54, 28 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Just found half title, and added it to the see also section. --xensyriaT 09:03, 28 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Title pages of chapters

edit

Some books have something like a frontispiece for each chapter. Is there a name for that? An example is here for Perspectiva Corporum Regularium (1568). The first is for the book, the others are for chapters. A modern example is The Neverending Story (search "neverending story initials").
