In between two columns and large flaming lanterns is an image of the Earth. Behind this is a starry and partly cloudy sky with a full moon. At the center is an open book with the quote "'May blessings be upon the head of Cadmus the Phoenicians or whoever it was that invented books.' Carlyle". Beneath the entire image, in blue ink, is the signature of Joseph Cort. Cort received a PhD from Yale in 1951.
A circular image with a shield at the center, in which an argent chevron divides an azure field, with three argent stars above, and a rose beneath. At the helm, atop a crown, is a knight's helmet backed in leafing; at the crest is a three-quarter image of a warrior, clad in armor, and brandishing a banner. At the base of the shield are three medals. Surrounding the shield is a border with a motto (partially obscured by other images). A second motto appears on a banner below, which reads Spiandact Tapeir Neill. The shield is flanked by two gorged owls gardant.
