Contemporary stitching with reuse of leaves from a Latin incunable. 5 gatherings are bound together (and to the endleaves) with leather thongs, the first three gatherings now held together only by one stitch. A light dampstain at bottom right on the first 5 leaves, pale foxing on the title page.
A table of contents, at the end of the work, allows one to find the various ordinances which concern all the trade guilds, the king's officers and the clergy. Charles IX was only ten years old when he acceded to the throne in 1560, during the regency of Catherine de Medici, who appointed Antoine de Bourbon Lieutenant General of the kingdom. It was during the meeting of the Estates General at Orleans, from 13 December 1560 to 31 January 1561, that these ordinances were proclaimed and published.
