The trades increase

Kayll, Robert · 1615 · London : Printed by Nicholas Okes, and are to be sold by Walter Burre · 3 pictures

A 1615 London pamphlet by Robert Kayll, printed by Nicholas Okes and sold by Walter Burre, arguing on English commerce, the East India Company, and the herring fisheries, probably for merchants and policymakers. Its three pictures are printers' ornaments: a symmetrical strapwork cartouche with scrolling foliage, a repeating interlaced border, and a decorated initial G in a square frame set beside running text, useful for period headpieces, borders and drop caps.
