This collection of English binding fragments was given to NYU by Homer Lewis Bartlett (1858-1940), who graduated in 1884 from NYU with a degree in Science and Civil Engineering; he married Clarice Sherman Noble in 1892; they had five children.
by 1902, he was second vice-president of the Eastern District Savings Bank. De Ricci states that the collection (of 101 fragments with 70 others laid into the album) was given to NYU in 1884 (the same year in which Homer L. Bartlett graduated).
