Bradford Public Library Book Plate
Part of Local History Artifacts
A book plate with black calligraphy style writing, one of many done by Ian Reid.

He was known in the library as the Patron who did all the calligraphy for our book plates. If any family made a donation to the library in the form of a memorial, or just purchasing books for the library, Ian Reid graciously on his own time made these book plates which are prominently displayed in the books..."
