Tratado de la doctrina
A 1568 Spanish-language Catholic catechism, the Tratado de la doctrina by Felipe de Meneses, printed with Tarascan (Purépecha) passages for indigenous readers in colonial Mexico. The pictures are typeset section headings in the book's decorative style: ornamental scroll cartouches with rolled ends, a row of small figures along the top, and pointed hand-set capitals opening each paragraph, all in black ink on paper. A designer could draw on the scroll banners, framed title panels, and dropped initial letters as models for period-style headers and ornamental borders.
