This is a design for the stamp on the cover, found in section IX of the manuscript for Recréations Postales in Glasgow University Library.
A cover designed by Mallarmé is in the form of an envelope, inscribed 'Récréations/Postales/de/ Stéphane Mallarmé‚/ JAMES R.OSGOOD/ LONDRES McILVAINE & Co/ Editeurs.' (175 x 214 mm, the flaps cut by hand irregularly. 1
It is possible that this is by Beatrice Philip (Mrs E. W. Godwin, Mrs J. McN. Whistler) (1857-1896). She drew a series of studies of cupids, one of which, posting a letter, appears to be a design for Récréations Postales. 2
