Church of Scotland. General Assembly · 1639 · Edinburgh : Printed by the heirs of Andrevv Hart · 12 pictures

A 1639 Edinburgh printing of the acts of the Church of Scotland's General Assembly held at Glasgow in 1638, issued by the heirs of Andrew Hart for a Presbyterian readership. The four pictures are woodcut decorative initial letter T blocks: one with a dense interlace of flowers and foliage around a central letter, and one framed with grotesque bearded faces, scrolls and strapwork, useful for designers wanting early modern printers' ornament and framed capital letters.
