An fine and important early French type specimen showing an interesting array of types of various periods, some dating back nearly two centuries, and some in the latest fashion. Of this specimen book Updike spoke very highly "Lamesle issued in 1742 an extremely handsome and dignified specimen. This book, both in type and ornaments, I think, presents better than any other the output of French foundries during the last quarter of the seventeenth and the first half of the eighteenth century." "Lamesle's specimen book of 1742 was meticulously planned, with much of the text used for the specimen settings running on continuously from roman to italic and from one size to the next. His types were consistently numbered from start to finish, with Greek and Hebrew included in the numeration. Ornaments, signs, titlings and initial letters of various sizes were shown at appropriate junctures in the sequence, making the book a very comprehensive and helpful guide to printers deciding what they needed to order from him."Dreyfus. Updike I, 270; Audin, 27; Bigmore & Wyman I, 417; Birrell & Garnett 35; Dreyfus, Aspects of French Eighteenth Century Typography, 1982.

Of the finishing nine leaves of musical scores (on staves of four or five lines), three were printed in red and black. Updike claims that Lamesle's book both in type and ornaments "presents better than any other, the output of French foundries during the last quarter of the seventeenth and the first half of the eighteenth century. The collection of types is remarkably fine. [] For the student of French type-forms of the earlier part of the eighteenth century, there is scarcely a better book." (Updike, 1962) Claude Lemesle was a publisher and type-founder at Paris. He bought Jean Cot's foundry (Cot père, mère, et fils) in 1737, which he sold it to Nicolas Gando in 1758. Later he started the business again in Avignon, but his subsequent history is unknown. (Bigmore & Wyman, 2014) Bibl.: Bigmore, E. C., & Wyman, C. H. W.: A Bibliography of Printing. Bigmore & Wyman.

First edition of this precious work which "presents better than any other the production of types engravers in France in the last quarter of the 17th century and the first half of the 18th century" (Updike). Audin, 27; Birrell and Garnett, 35; Bigmore and Wyman 1, p. 417; Cat. Berlin, 5394 ; F. Johnson, The Type Specimen of Claude Lamesle (1927); Jammes, Collection de specimen de caractères, n°19; D.B. Updike, I, p. 270: "This book, both in type and ornaments, I think presents better than any other, the output of French foundries during the last quarter of the XVIIth and the first half of the XVIIIth century. The collection of types is remarkably fine". ? Rare first edition of these proofs of which there is a new issue published by Nicolas Gando in 1758. Precious catalog of the typography in the 18th century which gives all the most elegant types melted from the previous century until 1742. Lamesle, who had taken over Jean Cot's foundry in 1737, thus came into possession of two types engraved by Grangeon in the 16th century: the Cicero Gros ?uf n° XXXIV and the Petit Parangon n° LI. He also owned the Romain du Roi from the Imprimerie Royale of which Jean Cot's son had made a surreptitious copy. The types go hand in hand with initials and numerous ornaments. Lamesle also owned Arabic, Hebrew and others intended for printing music. The book thus presents 72 specimens of script types and 12 of music. The double-pages are devoted to large types and to music. The title and the engraved music are printed in red and black. Beautiful copy preserved in a nice contemporary binding, an exceptional condition for this kind of work.
