A 1683 letter by William Penn, proprietor and governor of Pennsylvania, printed in London by Andrew Sowle for the Free Society of Traders, concerning the colony and its Indian relations. The only picture is a Boston Public Library ownership seal, a circular engraved wreath with two nude figures flanking a shield with an open book and the words Public Library, City of Boston, 1852-1878, so it offers little beyond a classical laurel-wreath emblem for a designer to study.
