Modern type display and the use of type ornament
A 1911 Edinburgh typography manual by Henry T. Wyse, aimed at printers and designers, showing how to set display type and use printers' ornaments. Its pictures are small black-and-cream plates: a ringed border of stylised flowers and scrolls, a crossed-keys device over a lock shield, and gothic black-letter capitals with lowercase alphabets, useful for borders, initials, and period lettering.
