An annual government report from the Smithsonian Institution's United States National Museum, printed in Washington by the Government Printing Office in 1907 to account for the museum's progress and condition. The single picture is the Smithsonian seal: a globe ringed by the motto 'For the increase and diffusion of knowledge among men' with torches and ribbons at the sides. A designer might take its circular seal layout, with curved lettering set around a central map, as a model for badges or emblems.
