Have you seen this bookstamp?

13 August 2012 John Overholt Uncategorized

Our colleagues at the Cambridge University Library Incunabula Project are seeking help in identifying the former owners of several books now in their collections. As one of the marks, a bookstamp apparently belonging to a member of the Strozzi family of Florence, is also found in a Houghton volume, we’re hopeful someone will be able to supply an answer to this or any of their other queries.
