Hi Jean-Yves,
A cursory sweep of the net for "Erhard Ratdolt" points to his being one of
the first printers to use a decorative title-page. Perhaps it will turn out
that the "cat and mouse (rat)" device is actually Ratdolt's pseudo-heraldic
pun on his own name. :-)
If so, it would seem extremely likely that this is what WMV was
(implicitly) referring to in his own pseudo-heraldry. :-)
Happy hunting!, .....Nick Pelling.....
