France. Parlement (Paris) · 1630 · A Paris : Chez Jean de Bordeaux · 4 pictures

A 1630 Paris printing of a judgment issued by the Fourth Chamber of Inquests of the Parlement de Paris, confirming a definitive sentence against a defamatory lampoon, published by Jean de Bordeaux and held by the Boston Public Library. Its pictures are small woodcut ornaments: a heraldic shield with fleur-de-lis and a crowned cartouche, a decorated initial letter with a grotesque beast, and a repeating foliate border, plus a later Boston Public Library bookplate that a designer could set aside as an ownership mark rather than part of the book's decoration.
