Buffet, Marguerite, fl. 1668 · 1668 · Paris : De l'imprimerie de Iean Cvsson ; et se trouvent chez monsieur Bovrbon, à l'entrée du quarré du pont S. Landry · 6 pictures

A 1668 French grammar and commentary on the French language by Marguerite Buffet, printed in Paris by Jean Cusson, treating archaic and obsolete words, correct usage of new words, and praises of learned women for a readership of scholars and educated readers. The four pictures are enlarged microfilm-style scans of isolated numerals and letters, mostly bold black forms on speckled white, with scratches and specks from the film; a designer might take their heavy stencil-like numerals and the plain Cu letterforms as high-contrast, distressed type references.
