Arenas, Pedro de · 1611 · En La Emprenia [sic] de H. Martinez · 3 pictures

A 1611 Spanish-Nahuatl phrasebook by Pedro de Arenas, printed by H. Martinez, compiled as a manual of common questions and answers for Spanish speakers learning Mexican Nahuatl. The pictures are close crops of letterpress text in black-letter-influenced roman type with long-s forms, showing dense small-set columns on aged paper. A designer might take from them the texture of early modern printed type and the irregular inked edges of hand-set metal letters.
