| Notes |
The names H. W. Parker and Henry W. Parker appear in a few bookplates that belong in the Pratt Institute Ex Libris Collection, and one bookplate in that same collection is created by someone with the initials H. W. P., but there is no concrete connection between those names and the H.W.P. of this bookplate.
