Herrera y Oballe, Baltassar de, Izcarey, Joachin de · 1640 · [N.p., n.p.] · 2 pictures

This is a 1640 legal memorial, printed without a named publisher, setting out a lawsuit brought by Baltassar de Herrera y Oballe of Salamanca against Joachin de Izcaray and associates of the same city, aimed at the court and parties involved. The pictures are two text pages in Spanish secretary-style type, one opening with a large historiated initial E carved with a seated figure, and a designer could take from them the dense letterpress texture, the decorated drop capital, and the italic handwritten-looking letterforms.
