Inscribed and signed by actor John Barrymore to fellow actor Hans Conried presented to him five months before Barrymore’s passing: “To Hans Conried - with sincerest good wishes to a fine artist John Barrymore 9 iv ‘41.†This was John Barrymore’s own copy with his large engraved bookplate which is a striking design by Barrymore himself with his initials at the bottom showing the masks of comedy and tragedy entwined in a thorny tree with flowing banners reading: “John Barrymore - Ex Libris†beneath which is a pen and an artist’s brush. Beneath this is Conried’s own bookplate printed in crimson and a caricature vignette of Conried.
