Sobre este artículo
No place [Philadelphia ?]: published by the library, engraved by S. Allardice, no date [1795 - 1803]. Letterpress bookplate measuring approximately 3.75 inches by 2.75 inches, the text, with flourish below, within an oval ornamental border, signed in print at the lower right by the engraver.
No evidence of removal, left & bottom edges untrimmed, toned, foxed, otherwise good.
The Library Company of Baltimore was established in 1795 and had 226 members by 1797. Operations ceased in 1854.
Charles Dexter Allen, in American Book-Plates: A Guide to their Study, notes that Allardice was apprenticed to Robert Scott in Philadelphia and that "only one example of the book-plate work of Allardice is now at hand, and that is simply an engraved label for the Library Company of Baltimore."
