The trades increase
The Trades Increase is a 1615 London economic treatise by Robert Kayll, printed by Nicholas Okes and sold by Walter Burre, arguing for England's commercial policy, trade and fisheries. The pictures are small printer's ornaments: a scrolled cartouche with a central oval, a repeating strip of interlaced foliage, and a large decorated initial G with a flowering stem, useful to designers seeking historic border and capital-letter patterns.
