Scope and content
Item is a facsimile by Arthur Lismer of the ornately scripted brass that graced the original Dalhousie College, commemorating the event of George Ramsay laying the building's cornerstone in 1820. Also within the folder is a label originally taped to the drawing that gives its title and "no. 4 —", probably referring to its suggested placement in the order of illustrations that appear in One Hundred Years of Dalhousie, 1818–1918 (1920), the publication for which the image was created. The book also features a facsimile of the stone tablets on the college's parapet, but the location of the original drawing of these is unknown.
