Traité de l'orthographe [microforme]
A 1669 French orthography treatise by Louis de Lesclache, printed in Paris by P. Prome for French speakers and foreigners learning to write and pronounce French. The title page is set entirely in letterpress type with no illustration, so its value to a designer lies in the typography: a centred hierarchy of roman and italic lines, long descriptive subtitle, and a fleuron-free layout framed by a ruled line above the imprint. Library stamps and a microfilm-era scan are present but are not part of the book.
