The motto "Let Me Dream" runs across this bookplate, and it is the first thing that sets it apart from the many library-themed pieces on this board. The label bears the name of Anita Herriman Vedder, meant to be pasted inside the cover of her books to mark them as hers. Owners commonly used bookplates like this from the late 1800s into the 1900s, often choosing designs with books, reading, or quiet study to show their taste. Its small size and personal wording make it a useful window onto how readers claimed and decorated their libraries.
