Ex libris of Anthony Wood in A New Dictionary of Heraldry

The physical copy in my possession originates from the personal library of Anthony Wood, one of the illustrators of the work, as evidenced by his ex libris. His library was offered for sale by R. G. Watkins Books and Prints, Somerset, from which I personally acquired a small, selected group of heraldry and heraldic art books.
