Nouvelles extraordinaires de divers endroits [serial]

Luzac, Etienne, 1706-1787, Luzac, Jean, 1746-1807 · 1680 · A Leide : Por Etienne Luzac · 44 pictures

A serial of extraordinary news from various places, published in Leiden by Etienne Luzac, with a 1680 date that sits oddly against the Luzac family's 18th-century dates, so the printing history is uncertain. Its pictures are small, rough woodcut-style heraldic shields topped by crowns, each showing a rampant lion with a curling tail set in a plain outline shield over printed text, which a designer might take as a compact model for simple coat-of-arms motifs.
