Baer was a notable figure in the early 20th century, renowned for his contributions to the fields of bookplate collecting and numismatics. As the secretary of the American Society of Bookplate Collectors and Designers, Baer played a pivotal role in promoting the appreciation and study of bookplates, a form of decorative art used to indicate book ownership. His extensive correspondence and administrative efforts, preserved by the American Numismatic Society, underscore his dedication to the preservation and documentation of historical artifacts. Baer’s work, particularly in collecting and studying medals and bookplates, has left a lasting legacy in these specialized areas of historical and artistic scholarship.
