[Collection of Mexican legal forms]

[Mexico City] : [publisher not identified] · 3 pictures

A printed Mexican legal form collection, probably from the sixteenth century, with no named publisher, offered as a template of standard contract wording for notaries and clerks. The pictures show a large decorated woodcut initial S opening a Spanish legal text, with handwritten manuscript entries filling the blank spaces beneath the printed lines, so a designer might take the contrast between a crisp printed letterform and loose ink script.
