3_75_Waltz.jpg

A pictorial-style bookplate in black ink on ivory paper with a thin line border. There is an image of a lit fireplace with a mantle holding books and a vase of flowers. To the left of the fireplace is what looks like a smaller hearth with two urns. Above is a shelf holding two lit candles on either side of a porthole-style window. Above the window is the inset text "Ex libris" with the name Marion Leslie Waltz in a text box beneath the image. There is a signature at the bottom, and the date 1932 is handwritten in blue ink.
