Main (Thompson) Library location: North wing -- Fifth window. Macé Panthoul (c.14-- – c. 15--) worked primarily as a bookseller and bookbinder in Troyes, France. In 1501, his device appeared in the colophon of a book entitled Statuts synodaulx à l'usaige de Troyes. This book caused a great deal of controversy for Panthoul. Jean Clément, a government representative in Troyes, mandated the cessation of Panthoul's practice due to incriminating errors found in his books. This incident was one of many experienced between legislators and the sphere of printing and publishing in Troyes. Other known titles documenting Panthoul's involvement in their production – of which there are few – are Le debat du vin et de l'eau, Les souhaits des hommes, and La vie de monseigneur sainct Bernard. This mark displays a modification of the traditional orb-and-cross used by many printers in their devices. The orb is replaced by a rather stylized shape, with a similarly curving character inscribed within. Perhaps these forms represent Panthoul's monogram. Extending upward is a small flag with two v-shaped banners, flanked by two stars. For other versions of his mark, Panthoul displayed his interlaced initials on a shield, adorned with wreaths of holly and flanked by peacocks.
