Dissertationem hanc de abortu epidemico
A Latin medical dissertation by Heinrich Theodor Witte, printed in Jena in 1697 with type of the Gollner press for an academic readership of physicians and students. Its two pictures are decorative woodcut initials: a large ornamental letter A with a flower-filled vase and foliage, and a letter F set in a dense border of scrolling leaves and rosettes, both beside plain black-letter Latin text that a designer could borrow for historical display type or border work.
