Note 1: This impression needs to be measured and displayed at scale vis-à-vis the images of the impression in 6061B.
Note 2: Line-by-line similarities between the images of 6061A and 6061B suggest that these two woodcuts were printed from one and the same woodblock. This block could have been part of the printing wares that Martín de Montesdoca (active between 1553 and 1558) sold to Juan Gutiérrez (active between 1559 and 1572), and which Antonio Ricardo then acquired from Gutiérrez.
