Pinax rerum naturalium Britannicarum, continens vegetabilia, animalia, et fossilia, in hac insula reperta inchoatus
Pinax rerum naturalium Britannicarum is a 1667 London natural history catalogue of British plants, animals and fossils by Christopher Merret, printed for Pulleyn in Latin for a learned readership. Its pictures are small letter-initial blocks with flower and leaf borders around a single capital letter, plus a strip of interlaced beasts and foliage; a designer could borrow the compact woodcut frames and foliate border motifs for historic display type.
