A pictorial-style personal bookplate that appears to be a woodcut in black ink on ivory paper. The central image is of several books, a sheet of music, and a lyre in an untidy stack. At the top of the bookplate is the phrase "Ex libris" in block letters, and at the bottom is the name Francis CLune. On either side is a border in a vine pattern with stars in each corner.
