Contributed by Cary Memorial Library in Wayne
Description
This bookplate is part of the collection assembled by Elizabeth Mast Hyatt during the 1920s and 1930s in honor of famed opera and concert singer Annie Louise Cary (1841-1921) who was born in the town of Wayne.
Hyatt, a summer resident of Wayne, was involved in planning for a new library, which was dedicated in 1939 as the Cary Memorial Library. The bookplate collection was subsequently donated to the library's holdings.
Helen Barnhart was a collector of bookplates, and J.W. Jameson was a well-known bookplate artist and engraver.
