@unlambda they both say something, but the lower one is in a deliberately over-ornate, impossible-to-read style, I can only make out "book" (probably as part of "library" but I'm not sure). the more vertical, legible one says Harvard 哈佛。

It's typical for these types of manuscripts to have more than one ownership seal; you just add a new one every time it changes hands. Some art pieces have dozens.
