Published: 
Rouen : Pour Raulin Gaultier et Michel Angier de Caen, 1519.
Description: 
156 leaves.
Notes: 

Lacks title leaf.
There were copies of the same text and colophon (?) with variant title pages; those destined to be sold in Caen read at the bottom: "On les vent à Caen chez Michel angier libraire demourant deuant les gra[n]s escoles" and those retained for sale in the city of its origin read: "On les vent Rouen chez Raulin gaultier libraire demourant en la rue portart pres lenseigne du ftardel."
These Ordinances often form part of "Le Coutumier de Normandie", but as there was no "Coutumier" issued in 1519 this becomes one of the unusual separate printings of the Ordinances.
Title supplied from BNF Reserve F.2329 and Frere II, 353.
