Tome premier.
The record gives only a title, Tome premier, and a contributing library, so the book's kind, maker, date and place are unknown. Its four ornamental pictures are printed headpieces and tailpieces made from woodblocks, showing symmetrical scrollwork, urns, drapery, a crown-like canopy, and a dated 1739 cartouche, which a designer could draw on for border and frame ideas.
