The Duke of Millaine is a 1623 London tragedy by Philip Massinger, printed by Bernard Alsop for the bookseller Edward Blackmore and sold at his shop by St Paul's, written for the King's Men's stage at Blackfriars. Its pictures are small early-seventeenth-century woodcut ornaments: a grotesque mask with foliage and drops, and a leafy initial M with a printed block of text beside it. A designer could draw on their dense, hand-cut line work and vine-and-leaf borders for period typography or decorative capitals.
