Iconographic encyclopaedia of science, literature, and art
Iconographic encyclopaedia of science, literature, and art is a New York encyclopedia of 1852 compiled by J. G. Heck with Spencer Fullerton Baird, aimed at general readers and students. The only picture here is a bookplate reading Ex Libris The Cooper Union, The Gift of The Misses Hewitt, which is a library ownership label rather than an illustration, so a designer gains nothing visual from it beyond its boxed, centred typographic layout in black serif capitals on cream stock.
