A rectangular white bookplate sticker is affixed to the center of the page. It features a circular gold-bordered emblem with the words "HERMETIC PHILOSOPHY" original Latin: "PHILOSOPHIA HERMETICA" in capital letters. Inside the circle is a blue oval depicting a white pelican in its piety—a traditional Christian and alchemical symbol of sacrifice, showing the mother bird feeding its chicks with blood from its own breast. The nest sits atop a square pedestal or cube decorated with four floral rosettes. Golden rays of light shine down from the top of the oval.
