[edit] Summary

This is an image of the bookplate used by Sir John Forrest, explorer, first premier of Western Australia, and Australian federal Cabinet Minister.

The bookplate was designed by Allan Wyon (1843-1907).

From the pre- and post- nominals, and the date of death of the author, it can be concluded that this bookplate was manufactured between 1900 and 1907.

This digital image was created by scanning in an original book plate. It was scanned and contributed by the owner of the book, who wishes to remain anonymous.
