John Stow's Annals of England, published in 1603 with no named publisher or place, is a chronicle of English history held by Princeton University Library and aimed at readers of the period. The four pictures are decorative woodcut initial letters, two H's, an E and an I, set in ornate frames of foliage, scrolls and leaves that a designer could borrow for historical headers or drop caps.
