Caelii Aureliani siccensis tardarum passionum libri V / Oribasii euporiston libri III, medicinae compendium liber I, curationum liber I, trochiscorum confect liber I
A 1529 Basel medical treatise by Caelius Aurelianus and Oribasius, printed by Henri Petri for physicians and students of medicine. Its pages are dense black-letter text in two columns, with heavy marginal annotations and handwritten manuscript notes running down the edges, with no illustrations, so the appeal for a designer lies in its texture: tight type blocks, ragged handwritten glosses, and scholarly page layout.
