Broadside Specimen of Gillé fils, Paris

From Gallica (scan)

1808

An idea of the collection may be had from our reproduction of a broadside specimen of his types, probably issued also about 1808. In this, examples are shown of the roman and italic types and the caractères d’écriture just spoken of, and the sheet is surrounded with one of Gillé’s fine borders.
