A 1631 London quarto edition of Shakespeare's comedy Love's Labour's Lost, printed by William Stansby for the bookseller John Smethwicke, and later held by the Boston Public Library. The only picture is a Barton Library bookplate, a heraldic shield with three boars' heads, a motto ribbon reading 'Vae Victis' style Latin, and a printed library receipt, so it offers a compact model for armorial emblem design and label lettering.
