Recueil des chartes, créations, confirmations et colonel, capitaines, major, officiers et trois cens archers de la ville de Paris
A 1667 Paris printed record of charters and officers of the city's three hundred archers, published by R. Baudry and compiled by François Drouart for the civic guard. The pictures are woodcut historiated initials, large letters E and L framed by foliage, grotesque beasts, a seated figure with a laurel branch, and a cherub-like figure among scrolls, with blocky black outlines and heavy cross-hatching a designer could borrow for decorative capitals.
