8 Macpherson Avenue, Toronto, Canada.—Asks for a specimen of the Society’s book-plate, and sends two of his own design.
(The design at the head of the paper is similar to Add. MS a. 684/1/2. The Bibliographical Society did not have a Librarian; the letter was presumably passed to R. B. McKerrow as Secretary.)

Transcript
83 Macpherson Avenue, Toronto, Canada
2nd November 1918
Mr Stanley Harrod presents his compliments to the Librarian of the Bibliographical Society and begs to request that he may be favoured with one of the society’s bookplates by C. W. Sherborn.
He wishes to explain that in taking this somewhat presumptuous step he is actuated solely by a desire to possess examples of the highest attainment in this field of art, that by their study he may improve his own work. To accomplish this end he must appeal to the courtesy and generosity of the owners of the plates.
He encloses two of his own designs in the hope that they may prove of some slight interest.
