Constitutiones huius insignis Collegij veteris Diuae Mariae omnium Sanctorum
This 1646 Latin constitutions volume was printed in Mexico, probably by Juan Ruiz, for the Colegio Mayor de Santa María de Todos Santos in Mexico City, setting out the rules of that college. Its pictures are printed type pages dense with black-letter Latin and large woodcut decorative initials and ornamental panels, offering a designer models of historic letterforms, dropped capitals, and symmetrical scrollwork borders.
