This bookmark is not signed on the reverse - see the image below. It is however contained within the Stevens Family Album, presented to The Alfred Herbert Museum, so there can be little doubt it is of T.STEVENS manufacture.
This bookmark features the portraits of Benjamin Harrison, running as President, and Whitelaw Reid, running as Vice President. It was issued on the occasion of Harrison attempting to gain a second term as President, in 1892; being defeated by Grover Cleveland.
