Description:
The Yale insignia, including the phrase Lux et Veritas, at top center of a vertical rectangle surrounded by a decorative border. Beneath this reads "Gift of Dr. Lambert's nephews — Dr. Adrian Lambert B.A. 1930; Dr. John T. Lambert B.A. 1935; Dr. Samuel W. Lambert Jr. B.A. 1919; Dr. Dickinson W. Richards Jr. B.A. 1917." This bookplate is probably from the period when medical books were kept in a collection at Sterling Memorial Library, before the Yale Medical Library was built. Alexander Lambert received his BA from Yale in 1884, his Ph.B. from Yale in 1885, and his M.D. from Columbia in 1888.
