[Discorso della philosofia naturale e morale] [manuscript]
A manuscript treatise on natural and moral philosophy attributed to Marcus Antonius Porfidus, dated 1600 and held by the Burndy Library, a Smithsonian collection, as a donor's gift. The only picture is a printed bookplate, not a manuscript page, showing a red compass rose with a fleur-de-lis above and the words Burndy Library, Chartered in 1941 inside a double red rule border. A designer could take from it a restrained, two-colour emblem style built on a radiating star and a thin framed label.
