Remarks on Some Masonic Book Plates and Their Owners e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. In the preparation of my remarks on some American Masonic Book Plates and their owners I have had valuable assistance from Secretaries and librarians connected with the Craft, also from brother collectors. Mr. Frederick J. Libbie of Boston, loaned me from his personal collee tion original impressions of the Danforth and Ketchum plates for the purpose of reproduction here. I have been favored in the same man ner by some of the Brethren, also by friends not connected with the institution but whose plates bear the symbols of their profession, which have the same character as Masonic plates. The well known collector, Mr. Walter C. Prescott of Newton Center, Mass. Rendered important assistance, as also did Brother Hen ry Mitchell of the Studio Building, Boston, and also the members of the John A. Lowell Bank Note Co.
