A drawing of a table covered with papers and books. A globe is to the left, and a quill pen in an inkwell to the right. Behind the table is a chair and a large bookshelf filled with books.
In the upper portion of the bookplate is a large circle featuring an image of a globe with a large leafy tree growing at the top pole. Surrounding this is a border designed to look like a belt with a buckle. Within the border is the motto Veritas de Terra Orta Est. Further below, under the name of the plate's owner (and title text) reads If thou art borrowed by a friend right welcome shall he be to read, to study, not to lend but to return to me.
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.
