The Mayor of Quinborough is a 1661 London comedy by Thomas Middleton, printed for the bookseller Henry Herringman and sold from his New Exchange shop for playgoers and readers of the stage. The one picture is only a decorative display title word, set in a heavy old-style serif with uneven inked edges on a warm cream page, so a designer could take its wide capitals and worn letterpress texture as a model for vintage display lettering.
