Responce au Paradoxe de maistre Jacques de Marque ou il dict que la mouelle n’est pas la nourriture des os,
This is a 1607 Paris reply by surgeon Jean Lanay to Jacques de Marque, written in French for medical readers and printed by Claude Rigaud. The pictures are close crops of dense black-letter and roman type on aged paper, with a decorative engraved title page and printer's ornament; a designer might take the ornate border, the heavy printed letterforms, and the stamped ownership marks as period typography references.
