Recit veritable de la mort du sieur Baron de Heurteva[nt] : decapité à Paris, deuant la Croix du Tiror, le Mardy 22. de Mars

1617 · Lyon : iouxte la coppie imprimee à Paris, de l'Imprimerie d'Anthoine du Brueil · 3 pictures

A 1617 French broadside printed in Lyon, reprinting a Paris account of the beheading of Baron de Heurtevant in Paris before the Croix du Tiroir, for a general reading public. The three pictures in the index are a Victorian school-furniture trade advertisement, a frontispiece of an 1884 educational almanac showing a statue of Robert Raikes, and a wood-engraved drawing of a hinged casement window, so none illustrate this 1617 text and the designer's takeaway lies in their layout and lettering.
