Abstract

This paper reviews the French legislation about passports issued from the Revolution to the fall of the July Monarchy. We focus on the aspects related with Palaeography and Diplomatics: external characters, typography, form, validation elements, visas... Immediately after we study two specimens preserved in the municipal archives of Toledo and Escalona.
