This historic Initial Letter was used in a book on medicine and surgery printed by Pierre Gaultier in 1544. In 1998 a copy of the book sold at Christies for $10,350.00.
Each letter is beautifully presented in a solid wood gold frame and a generous 6 ply mat with a hand-painted gold beveled edge. There is a hook for wall hanging or an optional brass easel stand for desk and tabletop display. Attached to the back is a story card describing the history behind the letter.
