A 1699 Edinburgh pamphlet printed for John Vallange and James Wardlaw, giving a short account and description of the Darien isthmus where the Scottish colony was settled, addressed to the Council General and Court of Directors of the Company of Scotland. The two pictures are a small engraved coat of arms with an eagle, three charges, a scroll reading GAUDEO and foliate scrollwork, and a dedication panel beside a tiny map of the isthmus with a compass rose and a ship, which a designer might take as models for heraldic framing and early cartographic lettering.
