Bookplate: William Truman Aldrich and Dorthea Davenport Aldrich, Ex Libris inscribed

Frederick Garrison Hall

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of a street scene. The scene depicts a street with buildings on either side. The buildings have multiple stories, with windows and shutters on each floor. The leftmost building is taller than the other buildings. There are people standing on the street, some near a horse-drawn vehicle. The sky has a large cloud formation emanating from between the buildings. The drawing is in a rectangular frame with a decorative border. The frame sits on a stone-like base with the names "William Truman Aldrich" and "Dorothea Davenport Aldrich" engraved on it. The base also has the words "Ex Libris" engraved on it, accompanied by an oval shape. The entire image is on a piece of aged, off-white paper with visible creases and wear.
