Belle da Costa Greene's Bookplate Mug Medieval Money and the genre and continuingBelle da Costa Greene, librarian and the Morgan Library's first director, was not shy on expressing her love of books through the titles she acquired for the library, her personal collection and especially as she described in personal and professional correspondence.
