Description

Shows Zealandia with a New Zealand flag on left, and a Maori warrior on right: between them are two shields, one with the Turnbull coat-of-arms, one with New Zealand insignia.

Other Titles - Fortune favours the bold

The ink drawing for this plate was previously dated ca 1930, but a letter dated 1 November 1951, and enclosing the printed bookplate (from Clyde Taylor to David H Graham), says "I send you a few copies of our new bookplate, drawn to our own design by James Berry" (leter housed at BOOKPLATES-Graham-H-Turnbull-1951-01). This suggests the bookplate was made in 1951, although it is possible that it was a 1951 re-issue.

Quantity: 1 b&w art print(s).

Physical Description: Relief print, 107 x 90 mm.
