A 1634 municipal statute book printed in Aix-en-Provence by Estienne David for the Parlement's regulations on rural guard and police in the Aix region, held by the Newberry Library. The pictures are a printer's oval bookplate with the Latin word LIBER in a decorative interlaced frame, and a title page whose woodcut coat of arms sits centred between a small ornamented heading and the imprint lines, showing a plain letterpress hierarchy a designer could borrow for formal civic typography.
