Two nude children joining hands in front of a pillar, and holding up an oval reading Ex Libris. Above them is a large open book. Bookmarks on either side of the book show the bookplate's title text.
A caduceus stands before a drawing of the female reproductive organs inside a dark circle. Surrounding this are the names Harvey, Osler, Sims, Lister, Curie, Holmes, and Matas. Beneath the caduceus is the phrase Ancora Imparo. A larger circle circumferences this with the bookplate's title text, as well as a pair of rabbits and a pair of rats. Beneath the center image is a stack of books with the subject titles of Music, Medical History, Obstetrics, and Gynecology. The seal of Tulane University is to the left, and a lit lantern is to the right.
