Report on the progress and condition of the United States National Museum
An 1907 annual report of the United States National Museum, published in Washington by the Government Printing Office for Congress and the public, documenting the museum's progress and condition. The only picture is the Smithsonian Institution seal, a circular emblem with a globe, torches, and the motto 'For the increase and diffusion of knowledge among men', offering a designer a classic example of text set around a central roundel in a formal government seal.
