A Paris manual for intaglio printers, the Nouveau manuel complet de l'imprimeur en taille-douce, compiled by Berthiau and Pierre Boitard for working engravers and printers in the Roret encyclopedic series. The first picture is a printed Paris heading above an ornate emblem of crossed tools and a crowned shield, while the second is a plate of technical drawings of presses and fittings, with a fine ruled hand that a designer could borrow for diagrammatic layouts.
