The elder brother is a 1661 London printed comedy by John Fletcher and Philip Massinger, acted at the Blackfriars by the King's Servants and held by the Boston Public Library. Its only picture is a page of repeated ornamental printer's flourishes, a block of small floral and scroll-like motifs arranged in three staggered rows, offering a designer a ready source of symmetrical, tileable border ornament from 17th-century typography.
