Les Epithetes de M. de la Porte, parisien [microforme]

La Porte, Maurice de, parisien · 1571 · Paris : G. Buon · 6 pictures

A 1571 Paris printed book by Maurice de la Porte, a Parisian writer, published by G. Buon and held by the University of Ottawa as a microform copy; its subject is the French language. The four pictures are not illustrations but heavily blotted black characters, a numeral 59, the letters 'oy', the capitals 'AG', and the numerals 84, all isolated against white with speckled scan noise. A designer could take from them a rough, stamped, letterpress-like texture for bold, distressed display type or numerals.
