8 Vintage Dictionary Pages to Print

Today I’m sharing these Printable Vintage Book Pages from some Antique Dictionaries. Most of these date back to Circa 1880s. I know that many of you guys love to make crafts using old Book or Dictionary pages, but you may not have access to the real deal, or you may not be able to bare cutting up old books in order to use those pages. So I’ve scanned some nice ones so that you can just print these out and use them time and time again. These old Ephemera Dictionary pages to print have yellowed over time and have the perfect aged patina to give your handmade projects some Vintage Style! Dictionary Art is still quite a popular trend and these pages are the perfect starting off point.

Dictionary Pages to Print

The first Dictionary Page Printable starts with Snuggery and ends with Sociable, I’m so in love with the word “Snuggery” now after reading this, although I was not familiar with it before! Great to use for cozy Winter collages. Vintage Dictionary PagesClick HERE for the full size Printable PDF of the Prayer Page
The next Dictionary page to print starts with Prayer and ends with Precedent. I thought this one would be useful for a Journal, you could write your favorite prayer on top of it, with colored markers.
Antique Dictionary Page
This one goes from Oddfellow to Of. I think it could make the basis of a quirky masculine project of some sort. I would be great to use in a Manly Junk Journal.

More Printable Book Pages

           I thought this printable book page would be a fun to offer, as it has so many little pictures on it. These tiny illustrations are such little gems. Do you see the cute Mermaid in the center?! There are also some animals, birds and a flower as well.
Next we have Mesmerist to Metal. Ah, the possibilities with this one! Perhaps you will print, or stamp, something Mesmerizing on top of it, or go with an Industrial style look and focus on the Metal aspect. Lots of ways to go with this Vintage Book Pages Printable.

 This last one is Humorously to Hurly Burly. How fun! You could really create some fun Quirky or Whimsical Dictionary Art with this one.

Dictionary Pages with Love

Dictionary Love Page
Here is the latest addition to this collection. This one and the one below are both new this time. With Valentine’s Day coming up, I thought it would be useful to have some Love themed pages to use in your Collages. This one has the definition of “Love” on the page.
Next up is a page from a cute smaller book in my collection, although I have enlarged this download a bit. This one goes from Valentine to Veil. Sweet!
I hope you enjoy this set of Vintage Printable Dictionary Pages! So nice to use in your Craft, Junk Journals, Mixed Media Art or Collage Projects! You might also like our post on How to Make a Dictionary Art Collage HERE.

    I’ve just seen this, and thank you for the gift! I couldn’t bear to cut up a book unless it was falling apart and so damaged, that a repair really wasn’t possible. I am intrigued to see English spelling, which suggests one book may’ve been printed over here ? I had a dictionary for my best present when I was 10 and have it still, 64 years later:-)) Stay safe and be well, virtual hugs, Ruth in Brum (Birmingham, England.)

      You are so welcome Ruth! I’m glad you can use these in your art. I will add more to this set over time. I love that you kept that treasured dictionary of yours since childhood!!

    Thank you for these! I was in need of some bc my computer had a gliche and I lost a lot of digitals, so I’m starting from scratch again.

    I appreciate that you share with us.

  5. Lisa says

    5 is exactly what I needed for my project, so lucky to have found you here and thank you so much!

  6. Mary Griswold says

    Thanks very much for these pages. I have had a few projects in mind using dictionary pages as part of the backdrop & didn’t have any. I was thinking I needed to make trip to the vintage stores in the area to find some, but you saved me the trip. Very nice of you 🙂

  7. Jacq says

    Thanks for the pages! Snuggery is such a funny word, it might explain why, back in the ’50s/’60s English pubs had a room called The Snug which was were the women would drink. I always wondered why it was called The Snug!

    Thank you for these pages. I have yet to find my own dictionary – the search is enjoyable but frustrating!

  13. Maxine D says

    Thanks Karen – I won’t download these as I have a whole big dictionary to myself to use as I wish – one volume of a Websters that a dear friend bought for me in a garage sale!!
