Bookplate (b): for "Book 18203" is believed to be in Figaro font, devised in 1940, and so it is thought the plate dates to post 1940. Bookplate (c): Is believed to use Chisel font, devised by Robert Harling in 1930, and so it is thought to date to post 1939. Governors' Minutes 22 January 1945 read: "Designs by three students were submitted for a bookplate for the library books and the design of Miss Elizabeth Jamieson was selected. It was agreed that Miss Jamieson receive the sum of £5.5.0 for her design." However it is not clear which bookplate this is referring to.
