[Two souvenir plates on display]

Photo of two lithographic souvenir plates on display in the reading room of Kent State University Special Collections. They are part of the Crime-related Artifacts collection. The one on the left depicts a prisoner in front of a judge saying "Mr. Le Judge me cite deux temoins qui m'ont vu moi je lui en citreai plus de mille qui ne m'ont pas vu.", meaning "His Honor cites me two witnesses who saw me; but I will cite more that a thousand of them who didn't see me." The one on the right shows a man standing in front of an empty safe with hands on his head. The legend reads "Ou est le cassier?", meaning "Where is the cashier?" A group of attendees visited the archives on the first day of the 49th annual CSLA conference that was held at Kent State University from June 27-29 in 2016.
