Directly above this is a second bookplate (on more modern paper) with "Ian Jack" surrounded by a chain-like border. Laying on top of, and partially covering these are "From the Library of Kenneth Monkman at Shandy Hall", and underneath this is "Property of the L S Trust, 1986" On the obverse of the title page is an ink stamp "Laurence Sterne Trust Shandy Hall" in a circle with "The Kenneth Monkman Collection" inside it. There is a printers device underneath the title which is the same as in volume 1. The catchword is to the bottom right of every page.
