Collectanea chymica : a collection of ten several treatises in chymistry : concerning the liquor alkahest, the mercury of philosophers, and other curiosities worthy the perusal
A 1684 London anthology of ten alchemical treatises on the alkahest and the mercury of the philosophers, gathered and printed by bookseller William Cooper for practitioners and collectors of chymical literature. Its images are typographic rather than pictorial: engraved manuscript signatures, heavy roman drop capitals over show-through text, and ruled title panels useful as letterforms, rules, and period headings.
