Declaration du roy, pour le reglement general des passemens & dentelles, auec deffences d'en porter, vendre, & trafiquer de celles des pays estrangers; ensemble de tenir aucunes academies ou brelands pour le jeu de hazard. Verifiée en Parlement le 22. mars 1635.
A 1635 royal decree from Louis XIII of France, printed in Aix by E. David, setting general rules for lace and passementerie, banning foreign lace, and restricting gaming academies for the public and trade. The pictures are small woodcut and engraved ornaments: a heraldic royal emblem with fleurs-de-lis and a rose-patterned shield, and a repeating scrolling border with fleur-de-lis spacers that a designer could adapt for historical borders or lace-pattern motifs. The third image is a library ownership stamp, not part of the book.
