NOTE present section of the Catalogue of the Incunabula in the Library of the British Museum describes the Museum copies of books printed at Eltvil, Augsburg, Nuremberg, Speier, Esslingen, VIm, and sixteen other G'erman towns, ending with Trier, where printing was introduced in 1481. The Museum Collection, though much less rich in the Incunabula of these towns than in the books of the earliest printers at Mainz and Strassburg, is yet very fairly representative, and while the final history of these presses must necessarily be written in Germany it is hoped that the present volume may be of some use as a contribution to it. I t had been intended that this section should bring the Catalogue to the end of Germany, but in order to keep the volumes fairly uniform as regards number of pages and plates it was found necessary to let the books of the remaining German towns (the descriptions of which have all been written) form part of a third section. In order that the knowledge of German types already gained may be used in investigating the work of kindred presses while it is still fresh, instead of going on to Italy work is now in progress on Basel, and it is proposed, in accordance with recent precedents, to include both Switzerland and Austria-Hungary in Part iii. Like its predecessor, this second section of the Catalogue is the work of Mr. A. W. Pollard, Mr. A. J. K. Esdaile, and Mr. J. V. Scholderer. While Mr. Pollard has supervised the Catalogue throughout, both he and Mr. Esdaile have been in part diverted to other work, and more than half of the descriptions have thus been written by Mr. Scholderer.

INTRODUCTION IN the present section of this Catalogue the importance of the ornamental capitals used at Augsburg, Vim, and elsewhere, and their frequent usefulness in dating books or assigning typographically anonymous ones to their printers, have caused a special section on Capitals to be added in many cases to the descriptions of the types. Shorter phrases have been found for one or two formulas. In other respects the plan as explained in the Introduction to the first section of the Catalogue has been closely adhered to. Thus all that is here needed is to· draw attention to some of the more interesting and controversial points connected with the presses dealt with in this instalment. Since Proctor's' Index' was published the British Museum has had the good fortune to acquire a specimen of the Eltvil press, of which it had previously no authentic example. On the other hand, the reasons which Proctor advanced in his second Supplement for assigning several typographically anonymous books to Eltvil have not been strengthened by further investigation. F our of these anonymous books are in the British Museum, and three of these are linked closely by their watermarks and type-pages to the Vocabularius utriusque iuris and the Fasciculus Temporum, the former of May, the latter of November, 1477, bearing the imprint of Peter Drach, citizen of Speier. As a rule, any theory which involves the transference of type from one town to another is to be looked at with suspicion, but where a waterway was available, as between Speier and Eltvil, such a transference becomes much less improbable. It therefore seems more likely that Drach supplied BechtermUntze with the type for printing the fourth Eltvil edition of the Vocabularius ex quo than that a press which had seemingly devoted itself to printing editions of this one small work should suddenly have launched out into printing several much more ambitious folios, averaging nearly three hundred leaves apiece. Passing to Augsburg, it has been found possible to arrange Gunther Zainer's undated books in a chronological order which seems fairly certain, partly by the use of his advertisements and of rubricators' dates, partly by noting the successive changes in his main text-type, that measuring '118 mm. to 20 lines. On the other hand, the subsequent use of this 1 18 type by no fewer than five other Augsburg printers has caused several books usually ascribed to Zainer to be treated as doubtful, on the Score of bad workmanship or the use of capitals not found in his signed books. As regards other Augsburg presses there is not very much to be said. The Vocabularius latinus ascribed by Proctor (P. 16 38) to the press of SSt Ulrich and Afra must be taken out of bibliographies as a' ghost '; it is really part of the Glossae Salomon is (P. 1636). I t has proved possible to arrange some of the undated books of Anton Sorg into groups (see p. 345). Johann Wiener's first type has been traced in two different states, thus bringing the Augustinus de fide and Vegetius earlier than his first dated book, the Guillermus of 20 August, 1475. Good reasons 1 have been found for believing that Ludwig Hohenwang removed his press from Augsburg to Basel, and his edition of the Orationes of Innocentius III (P. 19(9) has therefore been transferred thither. Lastly, the early date 1481 given "'f~ ,~,~ ~ bwA.W-~ for the beginning of Froschauer's press has been abandoned as apocryphal, and this printer con- t~":~~;'S:~~. sequently appears almost at the end of Augsburg. Moreover, as Proctor had already recognized, ~'1.5'"~) ~ ~ Froschauer's type 6 was not introduced until the sixteenth century, so that all books (Proctor nos. 1852-1859) containing it have now ceased to be treated as incunabula. The first printer at Nuremberg, Johann Sensenschmidt, who began work in or before 1470, after printing numerous books anonymously, put his own name into the colophon of the Margarita poetica 1 The reasons which were typographical and liturgical were stated by Mr. Scholderer in Tlte Library (2nd ser., vol. ix, pp. 98 sqq.). They have since received the confirmation so much to be desired in other cases by the discovery of Hohenwang's name under the form , LudWig von Elchingen ',in Stehlin's list of references to printers in the Basel records (Archiv f. Gesch. d. Deutsch Buchhandels, vol. xi).

INTRODUCTION of Albertus de Eyb in December, 1472, his own and that of Heinrich Kefer into the Pantheologia of the following April (a large work which must have been in the press when the Margarita poetica was published), and his own and that of Andreas Frisner in various books beginning with the Summa de duodecim quodlibet of Aquinas in April, 1474. In his earliest stage it seems probable that Sensenschmidt had the financial support of Heinrich Rumel, possibly to the extent of printing for him on commission; Kefer, identified with one of Gutenberg's servants, would be a working printer; Frisner, a master of arts, was a press-corrector. Sensenschmidt's partnerships were thus of different kinds, and it has seemed better to keep all his books together as the work of a single press, rather than to divide them into altogether distinct groups. The long heading' Anton Koberger' begins with a recognition of the curious lack of evidence for his ownership of type 113, and consequently for his having produced the four books printed in it ascribed to him by Hain and Proctor. It seems probable that Hain actually confused this type with Koberger's 115, and that Proctor accepted the books as Koberger's on Hain's authority, adding to them a fifth, Hain *13437, which is better grouped with those of 'C. W., Ciuis Argentinensis t. In deference to Hain and Proctor the other four books have been left under Koberger, with a special subheading 'Ascription doubtful', but it is possible that these also represent the early work of C. W., 'citizen of Strassburg,' rather than that of Koberger, since the Honorius Augustodunensis in type 115, with its lavish margins, strongly suggests itself for the honour of being the first work of an . ambitious printer well supplied with funds. 1 In 1473-4 Koberger settled down to work, and thenceforward signed and dated books, many of them of great size, issued from his press with profuse regularity. One of the few unsigned and undated books by which this sequence is interrupted in Proctor's Index is the Speculum Naturale of Vincent of Beauvais, which has now been transferred to Basel, the large heading type in it not being Koberger's 165 (P.9). It was probably printed by Johann Amerbach, whose work from 1482 onwards would have been very difficult to disentangle from Koberger's if the latter had not signed so many of his books. The work of Adolf Rusch, the R-printer, is also linked with that of these two men, and attention may be called to the note on Koberger's Advertisement of the Summa Antonini and other books c. 1480 (p. 41 7 sq., I C. 7195), in which it is suggested that several of the books there listed were printed by Rusch. s In describing the books of Creussner a good deal of linking-up of undated editions has been done by the help of watermarks. Attention may also be called to the note on the first edition of the Modus legendi Abbreuiaturas, on p. 448 (lB. 7601). Between Conrad Zeninger and Wagner the dividing line has been placed much earlier than by Proctor, all the books which he assigned to Zeninger after J 48 3 being now transferred to Wagner. After Wagner a new Nuremberg firm has been placed, the Printer of the Rochuslegende (see preliminary note on p. 466 and Hain *13928 there quoted). Another hitherto unrepresented printer, Ambrosius Huber, forms the last heading under this city j the single book assigned to him was originally catalogued under Germany.-Unknown' (P.3286). In contrast with those of Augsburg and Nuremberg almost all the presses at work at Speier raise problems of considerable interest. The first two presses, those named after the .Postilla Scolastica super Apocalypsim and Gesta Christi, are both anonymous. Chronologically the second begins about where the first breaks off, and the types may all have been owned by the same printer. The 108 Postilla type with its mixture of forms suggests a 'prentice effort on which the Gesta 120 would be a natural improvement in one direction and the Postilla 87 (Roman) in another. In all three types, although more especially in the 108 and 120, the cutter seems to have been unable to get any uniformity in the size of his faces, and the Y (not y, as printed on p. 481) in the 108 and 120 types C

1 The books of the group of which the Honorius was almost certainly the first are remarkable for the number of their blank leaves, the Burley baving five and the Aleinous no (ewer than eight, one at the beginning and seven at the end. I In Hase's' Die Koberger' it is suggested (p. ~7) that the date of this Advertisement is 1487 and some of the books named in it are identified with editions issued in 1483, 1485, and the two following years. But the Advertisement is printed in the two types used in the Summa Antonini of 1479, and the text type is not known to have been used after 1480. The Summa is, moreover, the book specially advertised, aDd was therefore presumably a new work at the date of the Advertisement. Also the only other known copy of the Advertisement, that at the Hoi- und Staatsbibliothek at Munich, was found in the binding of a Fasciculus Temporum printed at Cologne by Heinrich Quentell in 1479- Thus everything connects the Advertisement with the date 1479-80, and this is accepted by Herr Burger in the preface to his' Buchblnd1eranzeigen '. That Kobergel' should subsequently himself print such of the books as he found popular is only what we Ihould expect. X

INTRODUCTION appears identical. As regards the use of the types we find ft very frequently for fc in all these types, and on the other hand the users of 108 and 120 both seem to have concerned themselves to assign to their proper positions the initial and medial forms of d. Whether there were two printers I~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ at work or only one, if the history of printing at Speier is ever further investigated, it will not be ~I ~ W. ~~ surprising should it be found that Rathsadvocat Thomas Dorniberg was actively connected with these ~ at~. early Speier books. He had certainly a hand in quite a third of the books issued by the Printer of Gesta Christi, and it is not improbable that it was he who corrected, and wrote the preface to, the Summa de Sacramentis of Johannes de Aurbach issued by the Printer of the Postilla. After the press of the Printer of Gesta Christi a new heading is inserted which requires a somewhat lengthy explanation. The books here brought together must be attributed to the press of the Georg of Speier who some time before I Y&Qrnary, 1480, probably in 1478 or 1479, was '3 J"'"'1 commissioned by Heinrich von Abendsberg, Bishop of Ratisbon (146 5- 149 2), to print the Breviary, of which a copy is described on p. 485. Four hundred copies were printed, the price being fixed at 3 Rhenish florins, and an episcopal letter was issued on the date mentioned exhorting the clergy of the diocese to buy the books' in ciuitate Ratispon. nunc allatos', an expression which has reasonably been taken as proof that they were not printed at Ratisbon itself. The printer is called' prouidus nobis sincere dilectus Georgius de Spira in dicta arte impressoria peritissimus' (see the reprint in Gemeiner, Regensburgische Chronik, III, pp. 64 2 -3). The main fount used, a very neat 88 text type, is very like and has been confused with a 90 mm. type us~d subsequently by Georg Reyser at WUrzburg and Michael Reyser at Eichstatt, under the general name of' typi Reyseriani ' or ' typi E ustadiani '. I t is probable that the former of these names for it is accidentally correct, as there are fairly adequate grounds for identifying the printer called by the Bishop of Ratisbon Georgius de Spira with Georg Reyser, and for believing that he worked at Speier for two or three years before going to WUrzburg, where, in conjunction with Stephen Dold and Johann Beckenhub, a priest from Mainz, he completed a Breviary for the diocese, about 20 September, 1479 (date of the Bishop's privilege). The only book in this 88 mm. type which bears a printer's name is the edition of the Philobiblon, which the prefatory letter dated 13 January, 148 3, ascribes to Johann and Conrad Hist, booksellers and printers of Speier. We should; therefore in any case, in the absence of information to the contrary, be bound to assign all books printed in this type to a press at Speier, and when we find the Bishop of Ratisbon writing of the printer of the Breviary as ' Georgius de Spira' the attribution is strongly confirmed. A further confirmation may be found in the fact that among the books in this type are two editions, both dated 12 January, 1478 , of a Strassburg Breviary, and that outside Strassburg itself Speier is the only place where such a Breviary is likely to have been printed. It seems probable that Georg of Speier had learnt his art at Strassburg, as the majuscules of the fount bear many resemblances to those used during the years 1473-1476 by Georg Husner, who had the habit, not very common among German printers at this time, of massing them for headings, instead of using a special heading type, a practice which may be noted also in the De Tambaco and Hostiensis from Georg of Speier's press. In 1473 Husner had had as his partner Johann Beckenhub. In 1476 he is found working alone. In 1479, as we have noted, Beckenhub was joined with Georg Reyser in producing the WUrzburg Breviary. It seems probable that this partnership may have begun 1 about 1476, and that Beckenhub's liturgical knowledge may have been used for the Strassburg and Ratisbon breviaries. He had already been connected with Strassburg, and after leaving Reyser he printed a Ratisbon Missal at Ratisbon itself (in conjunction with Sensenschmidt) in 148 5, so that there is the more likelihood of this. It is usually supposed that Georg Reyser was summoned to Wtirzburg from Eichstiitt, but there is no evidence that he ever printed there. On the contrary he seems to have been employed only as late as 1483 to print an Eichstatt Breviary, and then to have established a kinsman, Michael Reyser, at Eichstatt to do liturgical work there with (practically) the same types which he himself was using at Wurzburg. On the other hand, it would be natural for the Bishop of 1 In the Archiv des hist. Vereins fiir Unterfranken, XIV. ii. p. 133, it was asserted by Thomas Welzenbach (185 6) that Georg Reyser and Johann Beckenhub printed together at Strassburg in 1473, among other books, a Boccaccio De casibus virorum illustrium and an C Enndtkrist " a copy of the Enndtkrist being in the Stadtbibliothek at Frankfurt a. M. The statement is repeated by Herr F. W. E. Roth (Gesch. derVerlagsgeschafte und Buchdruckereien zu Wiinburg, p. IS), but is probably due to a confusion between Georgius Reyser and Georgius Husner, in whose types a Boccaccio De casibus was printed. Were the statement correct the early partnership of Reyser and Beckenhub would cease to be hypothetical. b2 Xl

INTRODUCTION WUrzburg in 1479 to summon a printer from Speier to print him a Breviary, as it was at Speier, at the press of Peter Drach, that the previous edition of the Wtirzburg Breviary (1477) had been printed. What is certain .is that we cannot without some typographical reason take away the 88 mm. type from Speier where it is found in 1483, and that we cannot separate the thin quarto books, ascribed by Proctor to the Hists, from the others, since the Speculum of Hermannus de SchiIdis (IA. 8703) is printed in the same stage of the type (see the note on it) as the Strassburg Breviary, and several other thin quartos in the same stage as the Ratisbon Breviary. The natural conclusion seems to be that Georg Reyser had already begun issuing books of this sort, and that when summoned to WUrzburg in 1479 he handed over his fount of 88 mm. type to the Hists, subsequently cutting for himself and his kinsman Michael another of very similar character. The next Speier press to be considered is that of Peter Drach, and there is no lack of problems connected with this, though they are not very interesting, and in some cases admit of no very satisfactory conclusion. First among them comes the question whether from 1476 to the end of the century we are dealing continuously with one man or with a father and son. On 17 August, 148 I, an edition of the Liber Sextus Decretalium of Boniface VI I I was completed, with the information in the colophon' in inc1ita Spirensium urhe diligenter impressus factore Petro drach iuniore ciue inibi '. In colophons of earlier years the epithet «iunior' is never attached to the name Peter Drach; the Bonifacius was printed in new types and resumed the use of printed signatures, which (except for a .reprint of the Vocabularius utriusque iuris, September, 1478) the firm, as far as books in the British Museum show, had not used since May, 1477, whereas of subsequent books in the Museum only the Summa extraordinaria super Institutis of Petrus Azo (1482) is without them. On the other hand, (i) the elder Drach did not die in 1481; (ii) it is only once again, and this after more than a year (7 September, 1482), that the epithet C iunior is applied to the printer, so that its use seems to be merely haphazard; (iii) although new types were cut for the Bonifacius the old types continued in use, and (iv) the resumption of signatures was so certain to take place about this time that it cannot be claimed as proving a change of hands. It is possible that Herr F. W. E. Roth in his monograph on the Speier press was right in attributing the earlier books to Peter Drach senior, but nothing is gained for typographical study by doing this, and it has therefore seemed better to keep in line with Proctor and Dr. Haebler and not to interrupt the natural sequence of the books by a change of heading. The other difficulties connected with Drach arise from his use of types indistinguishable from those found in the hands of other printers, or distinguishable fronl them only by minute differences such as are often found in different states of the same fount. The case of the four books which Proctor was inclined to take from Drach and transfer to BechtermUntze at Eltvil has been already discussed. The trouble caused by the identity or close resemblance of types used by Drach at Speier, by Johann PrUss at Strassburg, by Conrad Hist at Speier, and by Wenssler at Basel is much more complex and difficult to deal with. I n this Catalogue Drach has been enriched by the transference of the Latin Bible of 1486 from PrUss (as well as Breydenbach's Reise ins heilige Land from Schoeffer); on the other hand, he has lost to PrUss C Derer von Boppard widerwartige Handel des Erzbischofs und Stifts von Trier " and it is probable that the C Einreitung romisch koniglicher Majestat in Worms' should also have been transferred, either to PrUss at Strassburg or to Drach's rival at Speier, Conrad Hist. It has already been suggested that Johann and Conrad Hist probably succeeded to the business at Speier, which we have attributed to Georg Reyser before his settlement in Wurzburg. Following up the notes of Proctor as to the practical identity of the types of the Hists with those of the Printer of Lindelbach at Heidelberg, Mr. Scholderer, who has done this heading, is inclined to believe that some time in 1484 the brothers Hist may have migrated from Speier to the neighbouring town of Heidelberg, and printed there the early books ascribed to the Printer of Lindelbach. If the Hists are once taken to Heidelberg there may be some difficulty in bringing them back to Speier until after the disappearance of Johann; but if, as Mr. Scholderer thinks, Knoblochtzer began work at Heidelberg very shortly alter he matriculated there in 1486, and the later ' Lindelbach books were printed by him, it will still be possible to believe that both the brothers Hist worked again at Speier in 148 7 and the following years. So little information being obtainable from colophons, it is much to be wished that some external evidence, from legal or municipal records, could be adduced. J

INTRODUCTION A difficulty of precisely the same kind encounters us in the case of the next printer with whom we are concerned, Conrad Fyner, who certainly migrated from Esslingen to Urach (probably late in 1479), and was believed by Proctor to have returned from Urach to Esslingen in 1483. Proctor's belief appears to have been based on a mistaken identification of one of Fyner's later types with the large text type used at Esslingen before he went to U rach. The two types being different, we are without any evidence as to where Fynet was working after he signed his Heiligenleben at U rach in November, 1481, and in the absence of evidence his books, to use Henry Bradshaw's phrase, 'must be left' at the place where we last hear of him. H ere also documentary evidence from early records is sorely needed. In compensation for being thus deprived of the second period of Fyner's activity, it is possible that Esslingen should be credited with two fifteenth-century presses instead of one. In the text of this Catalogue in the entry of the Quodlibetum statuum humanorum of Jacobus de Clusa, the existence of the colophon' Per discretii viru Iohanem hug de goppingen' is noted, with the remark that' no explanation can be offered of it'. Bibliographically, indeed, Johann Hug of Goppingen, despite his epithet' discretus', is a troublesome superfluity, since he used no new types, and the book or books which he may have printed fit quite neatly into the sequence of Fyner's productions. The probable date of the book, however, is rather too early for any theory that we are here dealing with a bookseller falsely pretending to be a printer, though the misuse of the preposition' per' became frequent later on. It may also be noted that the QuodIibetum is one of three books (the Dicta de arbore quae dicitur Imago hominis and Jacobus de Clusa De apparitionibus et receptaculis animarum, both sine ulla nota, being the others) in which Fyner's original text type (96 mm. to 20 lines) is still used for the text and his later text type (120) for the headings. The types occur together in the two books by Peter Schwartz of 1475 and 1477 signed by Fyner, so that, as has been said, these three books come quite naturally between them. But if we choose to imagine that Fyner handed over the bulk of his 96 type and sufficient of his 120 type for use in headings to Johann Hug, keeping for himself the bulk of his 120 type and enough of the 96 for the interlineations in the Stern des Meschiah, the hypothesis would explain the facts. It would be difficult, however, to support it with similar cases of a division of founts between two printers, and it is simpler to imagine that Hug was allowed to work for himself with Fyner's types and on Fyner's premises. As regards' Johannes hug de goppingen', it may be noted that a' Johannes Goppinger', a student (i.e. of the University), and a Heinrich Hug 'der Gerichtschreiber' were among the arbitrators at Basel who heard a suit brought against Richel and Ruppel in 1473 (Stehlin, Regesten zur Geschichte des Buchdrucks ... Aus den BUchern des Basler Gerichtsarchivs, no. 14, in Archiv f. Gesch. d. Deutsch. Buchhandels, vol. xi). It is just possible that this Johannes Goppinger, who acted as arbitrator in a printing case, when his student days were over, became the 'discretus vir Johannes hug de goppingen r whose appearance at Esslingen raises a fresh problem in connexion with Conrad' Fyner. Finally, it remains to be noted, with regard to Esslingen, that in deference to the arguments of Dr. Adolf Schmidt (Centralblatt fUr Bibliothekswesen, xxv. 302 sqq.) Proctor's anonymous' Printer of the Brief des Bundes in Schwaben' has now been merged in the personality of Hans Reger at Ulm. Ulm, which has received this slight enrichment at the cost of Esslingen, is the next city on our list. Owing, doubtless, to a commercial crisis in the 'seventies and continual plague in the following decade, its typographical history is rather a gloomy one, as Johann Zainer, Dinckmut, Holle, and Reger, all of whom started doing very good work, seem in every case to have lost their capital and been obliged to give up their presses, so that by the beginn~ng of the sixteenth century printing in DIm had almost entirely ceased. While it lasted, however, it suggests few problems. and these of no great intricacy. The chronology of Johann Zainer's first three types is a little uncertain, as is often the case when one of the books with which a printer began his career was of much greater bulk than the others. There can be little doubt, however, that Johann provided himself at the outset of his career with founts modelled on all three of those in use by Gunther Zailler at Augsburg, and that one of his presses was from the first occupied with printing the German Decamerone. As to his later career hVo doubts have been raised, the first as to his responsibility for a group of books printed in four different types, the second as to whether a few books printed in and after 1496 were by the Johann Zainer of 1473 or a son of the same name. There seems no strong reason to doubt that we XIll

INTRODUCTION are dealing throughout with the same man, and the point, in any case, is of no great importance. The typographical authorship of the group which includes Lichtenberger's Prognosticatio and the Totentanz is of much greater interest, as concerning the provenance of two fine illustrated books, the first of which was copied not only in Germany, but in Italy. As far as this Catalogue is concerned they must be regarded rather as 'left' at Ulm than confidently assigned to it, the attribution being mainly based on the use of capitals at one time in the possession of Zainer, which he might easily have sold, lent, or taken elsewhere. The dialect of the Totentanz is said to be that of Mainz, and editions of both this and the Prognosticatio containing the same woodcuts were subsequently printed at Mainz by Jacob Meydenbach. Mainz is thus a formidable rival to Ulm for the credit of having printed them. In the case of Lauingen the evidence that the type used in an unlocalized edition of Augustinus De anima et spiritu of 9 November, 1472, is an earlier state of that found in the same author's De consensu euangelistarum 'in ciuitate Laugingen impressus', 12 April, 1473, has seemed sufficiently strong to warrant the former work being tentatively assigned to Lauingen. The fact that both books are by the same author and similarities in the wording and method of dating in the colophons form further points of connexion. On the other hand, the books are not uniform in size, the earlier being a small quarto (type-page 127 x 83 mm.), the later a small folio (type-page 178 x I I I mm.), nor is there any link offered by the paper. There may thus appear a rather higher probability that both books were printed by the same man, possibly a travelling printer, than that the earlier as well as the later was printed at Lauingen. But the short period, only twenty-two weeks, by which the two books are separated hardly permits of this hypothesis, and it seems tolerably certain that both were printed at the same place. As regards Merseburg (represented in the Museum by only one out of the four books printed there) and Marienthal there is little to say, save as regards the latter place to call attention to the three stages which have been traced in the use of type IlIA. In LUbeck, in consequence of the researches of Dr. Collijnand Dr. Lange, the changes have been great, the materials available in England having been too "scanty to enable Proctor to make a full investigation. Thus to Lucas Brandis are now assigned the Historie van der verstoringe der stat Troya, Zehn Gebote, and Book-Advertisement ascribed by Proctor to the Brothers of the Common Life at Rostock (see notes to lB. 9826 and lB. 9829 on pp. 551 sqq.); a place among LUbeck printers is found for Johann Snel, hitherto only recognized as printing at Odense in 1482 and Stockholm in 148 3, the book assigned to him, Weigel's Clauicula Indulgentiarum, being again taken from Rostock; the Promptuarium medicinae of 31 July, 1483, assigned by Proctor to Bart. Ghotan's press at LUbeck, has been transferred to the same printer's activity at Magdeburg; lastly, three other books have been transferred to another Magdeburg printer, Simon Koch, the loser in this case being Matthaeus Brandis, from whom also are taken, though with due recognition that he may yet be proved to have printed them, no fewer than ten books now grouped under an anonymous' Poppy Printer' (see preliminary note on p. 556). Thus of fifteen books in the Museum library assigned by Proctor to the press of Brandis only two are left, reinforced by a third (the Benedictional) transferred from Proctor's heading , LUbeck.-Miscellaneous', and two new acquisitions. Even of these the attribution to L~ck is not beyond dispute f The last fifteenth-century LUbeck printer, Steffen Arndes, fares better. He loses only the fragment of the Pfaff von Kalenberg and gains (from Heidelberg) Wimpheling's Disceptatio, besides two new acquisitions. Of Breslau and Blaubeuren there is nothing new to record, save that under Blaubeuren reasons have been given for placing two of Conrad Mancz's undated books earlier than the Calendar for 147 8. As may have been guessed from our penultimate paragraph, the heading of the Fratres viridis horti (Brothers of the Common Life of Green Garden) at Rostock has been robbed of much of its interest by the loss to Lucas Brandis at LUbeck of the Troy-book, short treatise on the Ten Commandments, and the Book-Advertisement, of which last a copy was generously presented to the British Museum by the Library of the Royal University of Upsala in 1903. The favour which the Brothers of Green Garden on the strength of this Advertisement were supposed to have shown to romances (Melusine, Alexander, and the Troy-book) can thus no longer be credited to them. In Proctor's Index Rostock is followed by Reichenstein, with the remark that ' the site of this place must be sought for in the neighbourhood of Koln " and the rejection as ' absurd' of a conjecture xiv

INTRODUCTION identifying it with Ober-Reichenstein in Austria. The only book which had been assigned to this imperfectly localized Reichenstein was that bearing in its colophon the words' supra Rychensteyn impressus' and the date 14 June, 1477, an anonymous Dialogus super libertate ecclesiastica inter H ugonem decanum et Oliuerium burgimagistrum'et Catonem secretarium. While nominally concerned with the privileges of the clergy at ' Thena " i. e. Tienen or Tirlemont in Belgium, this was really written in connexion with a dispute as to the taxing of the clergy at Cologne, and since Proctor's death the researches of Dr. Zaretzky (der erste KaIner Zensurprozess, &c., 1906) have shown that' supra Rychensteyn' was the address of a house, not merely, as Proctor guessed, in the neighbourhood of Cologne, but in Cologne itself. Dr. Zaretzky has also produced documentary evidence that the type in which the book was printed, though never used in any book bearing Gotz's name, was nevertheless borrowed from him. The press' supra Rychensteyn' thus becomes an appendix to Gotz's press at Cologne, ' Reichenstein ' as a printing town vanishes, and the Dialogus will appear in our Supplement under Cologne. No change has been made as to the two books attributed to Schussenried, though it may be ~. ~ . .f"~~: worth while to point out that there is no absolute proof that they were printed at the monastery in f~ ~ ~ 4rL.a that place. In the case of the Terence there is no mention of place or date. The colophon to the i.-.N~ t~ Ab'lf.7' Gracchus et PoIiscena reads: Finit felicite leonard9 Aretin9 jn monasterio / Sorten. Anno dm Mo~, S't~~~ l~~Jt l'~, qdringetesimo septuagesimo octauo. While there is a high probability that the' Finit in monasterio. ~~ ~~. ~.8', Sortensi' relates to the printing of the book, there is on the other hand at least a possibility that this is the colophon of a schoolmaster-scribe, who wrote out the book for the printer, and not that of the printer himself. In view of the fact that we are here dealing with the 120 type found at Strassburg in the hands of the Printer of Henricus Ariminensis and afterwards, as is generally supposed, in those of Michel Greyff at ReutIingen, this possibility deserves to be kept in mind, even though the opposite view is the more likely. As regards WUrzburg, the representation given to its printer, Georg Reyser, has been increased by four new purchases, and also by the transfer of two issues of an Indulgence and of the Psalter of Bishop Bruno from the allied press of Michael Reyser at Eichstatt. Dr. Adolf Schmidt kindly pointed out that the M in the 180 type of the Indulgence had the straight instead of the curled terminal to its first shank, this being apparently the only available test for distinguishing the type as used by Georg and Michael. The transfer of the Indulgences was naturally followed by that of the Psalter of Bruno, since not only does the same typographical argument apply, but there is also the fact that S. Bruno was Bishop of Wurzburg, and the book was peculiarly likely to be issued from a press started at WUrzburg under episcopal patronage. In the Introduction to the first section of this Catalogue, it was remarked that the Strassburg firm known as that of the' Printer of Henricus Ariminensis' had given more trouble in proportion to its output than any other. We meet with both the 120 and the 93 type ascribed to this Printer ascribed again to the press of Michel Greyff at Reutlingen, and they bring with them no less trouble and uncertainty than before. We know that the 120 type was used at Strassburg, because this is the type of the Henricus Arinlinensis De Quattuor Virtutibus (completed some time after 11 November, 147 2 , probably in 1473), which contains in its colophon the words 'arte impressoria Argentine artificiose effigiatus'. The most certain proof that it was used at Reutlingen is that in the Sermones Discipuli de tempore et de sanctis of Johannes Herolt, it occurs as a heading type in conjunction with an 87 Gothic type, this 87 type being used alone in the Supplementum of Nicolaus de Auximo 'Anno dni. M. cccC. lxxxij Sabbato ante epliie. In Rtitlingen ... terminatii'. Both these books form part of a group of ten attributed by Proctor to Otmar, but here assigned to Greyff. Whether printed by one or the other their connexion with Reutlingen is undoubted, and they prove that about 1482 the 120 type was in use there. The connexion of the 93 type with Strassburg appears to rest on its occurrence in Tusch's Burgundische Historie 'getruckt zu Straszburg anna Domini Ie. M cccc lxxvii', which the present writer has not seen. A subsidiary proof of its use at Strassburg, and the only proof of its use by the Printer of Henricus Ariminensis, may exist in its occurrence conjointly with type 120, if any of the books in which the two types occur together could be definitely assigned to Strassburg. The evidence that it \vas used at ReutIingen rests (i) on the use by Michel Greyff in the Albertus Magnus Sermones xv

INTRODUCTION de tempore et de sanctis 'Impressi per mi'chahele gryff in oppido rutlingen' of a recast of it on a narrower body, (ii) on its use in its earlier form in conjunction with type 120, on paper probably manufactured at Reutlingen, in an edition of the Quadragesimale of Gritsch. It also occurs, without type 120, in an edition of the Praeceptorium diuinae legis of Johannes Nider, printed on similar paper. 1 In dealing with these two types Proctor adopted a line of division which he himself stigmatized, with his usual vigour, as 'purely artificial'. To the Printer of Henricus Ariminensis he assigned all books in type 120 alone (save the two attributed to Schussenried), and all books in type 93 A which have no r in their watermarks, have no paragraph-marks, and only one form of us. To Michel Greyff at Reutlingen he assigned all books which (a) are printed in both types, (6) have paragraph-marks, (c) have watermarks which contain the letter r, (d) have more than one form of the contraction for us. In thus assigning to Greyff all the books printed in both types, Proctor seems to have cut away the only ground for attributing type 93 A to the Printer of Henricus Ariminensis, since, if the latter never used the two types together, there is no link between them while they remain at Strassburg. On the other hand, the 93 type as to which we have a positive statement of its use by Greyff at Reutlingen is 93 B, i. e. the type recast on a narrower body and with some minor differences. Strictly speaking this only obliges us, at most, to credit Greyff with the possession of the punches of 93\ but it certainly brings him into connexion with 93 A, and the connexion is strengthened when we find books in 93 A printed on what it is apparently safe to call Reutlingen paper. 11 ~ ~~ ",,~... At this point we have to face a fresh complication caused by the use of type 93 A in conjunction Vf· f\ . "& with type 103 of the Strassburg R-printer (Adolf Rusch) in a Summarium bullae indulgentiarum pro ~'" ~, ~. I , · ecclesia in V rach latae printed probably before 20 March, 1479. On the strength of this conjunction Proctor boldly brought the R-printer's type 103 to Greyff's printing-house at Reutlingen. He therefore attributed to Greyff the Bull of Sixtus IV (issued 17 June, 1478), relating to dissensions between friars and parish priests in Germany, especially at Esslingen (psertim i opido E~lingen). The fact that Esslingen is fairly close to Reutlingen ~upported the attribution, and the document, lB. 10630, is duly entered on p. 575 of this Catalogue under Greyff. When, however, the proofs of the heading Greyff were being read by Mr. Scholderer, he made the very interesting discovery that a blind impression of seven lines on the last page comes from the setting up of leaf 211 b of the R-printer's edition of the Epistolae of Pope Pius II (lB. 615, see vol. i, p. 63), thus proving that the 'Bull and the book were printed at the same office. I t will be difficult to show any sound reason for separating the Epistolae of Pius II from the other small folios in type 103 catalogued under the R-printer, which fall into a quite satisfactory sequence, the type-page about 1473 having 34 lines, in other books 35 and 36, in the Epistolae 37, and in the Bull 38. If these books all cling together, as they seem to do, their collective weight is far too great for the probable use of type 93 A by Greyff to drag them from Strassburg to Reutlingen. If the Bull mainly concerning Esslingen in type 103 cannot be severed from the rest of the R-printer's books at Strassburg, neither can the Summarium bullae indulgentiarum pro ecc1esia in Urach lata~ (P. t2687) easily be taken away from Strassburg, and if an Urach Indulgence was probably printed at Strassburg in 1479, it is difficult to say that the official document 2 issued from the court at Urach in October, 1476, in type 93A which Dr. Adolf Schmidt has discovered, was necessarily printed at Reutlingen rather than at Strassburg, because Reutlingen is so much nearer to U rach. The plain truth is that we do not know where, if anywhere, Greyff was working before 1479, and we also do not know how many printers were in possession of types 120 and 9 3A, or whether they went from a S trassburg office to Schussenried, Reutlingen, and possibly elsewhere, carrying type or matrices or punches with them, or whether without having been trained at Strassburg they obtained type from a Strassburg typecutter. Greyff appears to have a slightly better claim than anyone else to the books which Proctor assigned to him, with the exception of those in type 103, and some of these were printed within reach of I That the paper in question, which bears in two or three varieties a watermark combining an ox-head and a minuscule r, was manufactured at Reutlingen is strongly supported by Briquet, who figures two such marks (IS 148-9), and shows that they occur in paper used at Nagolt, Augsburg, and VIm. An asserted occurrence at 8trasaburg, supported by a reference to Paul Heitz, Les Filigranes des papiers contenus dans lea incunables Strasbourgeois de la Bib. Imp. de 8trasbourg, no. 637, on examination proves untrustworthy. In his first table Heitz assigns this paper to Mcntelin no. 1831. In bis second table no. 1831 is stated to be ' Guido de Monte'Rochen, Manipulus curatorum (1460)', which suggests an error, as no such edition is known, nor is it easily conceivable that Mentelin printed one in 1460. , A ltatement by Count Eberhard of Wiirtemberg to Duke Sigmund of Austria as to his claims to the county of Hohenberg.

INTRODUC'TION the ReutIingen paper-mills, but it is not at present safe to say that printing was introduced into Reutlingen before 1479. Two further problems connected with Michel Greyf£, to one of which reference has already incidentally been made, remain to be stated. Towards the end of the Farinator of 1479 the majuscules of his 93 B type are found mixed with others belonging to an 88 fount used in the Rochuslegende C gedruckt zu Nurmberg', with the date 1484. A calendar for 148 3 exists in the same type, also an edition of the Epistola contra quendam conciliistam of Henricus Institoris printed after, but probably not very much after,. 10 August, 1482. This and an undated Gebetbuch (not in the Suabian dialect), both formerly ascribed to Reutlingen and Greyff, have now been ascribed to Nuremberg, as linked much more closely to the Printer of the Rochuslegende than to Greyff. We are left wondering how the latter became possessed of the majuscules found mixed with his 93 B type in the Farinator. 1 It can only be conjectured that they were a sample which after this trial he rejected, the punches being subsequently sold to a small printer at Nuremberg.' The transference of the books in type 88 to Nuremberg leaves us free to assign to Greyff a group of incunabula in an 87 Gothic type (87 A ) with an occasional use of type 120 in an Incipit or heading. As already stated, one of these, the Supplementum of Nicolaus de Auximo (in type 87 only), is noted as C In Rutlingen deo auxiliante terminatii '. The group is thus definitely attached to Reutlingen, and must have been printed either by Greyff, Otmar, or an anonymous printer, for whom there does not seem to have been much room. While the 88 type of the Printer of the Rochuslegende was attributed to Greyff, it was difficult to saddle him with an 87 type of the same kind at the same time. This obstacle being removed it is seen that these books help to fill a long gap in Greyff's career. We have no reason to connect this type, or type 120 which is found with it, with Otmar, and the latter's general habit of dating his books, which makes his undoubted ones easy to deal with, renders it improbable that he printed so many undated ones. For his typographical authorship of these books, indeed, there seems no other argument than that if Greyff did not print them we know of no firm at Reutlingen save that of Otmar to which to attribute them. But this, of course, does not affect the probability that they are by Greyff. Only a few points remain to be mentioned. (I) In consequence of the discovery of a Lectionarium of 1479, with the imprint of a Monasterium Montis Sancti Petri Erfordiensis (see Burger, Monumenta typographica, plate 130 ), Erfurt has now been placed in the sequence of towns immediately after Reutlingen. The discovery by Dr. Haebler of Almanacs for 148 7 and 149 1 , in the types of the , Printer of Bollanus " has enabled an approximate date to be assigned to that press. Also Proctor's C Printer of Almanach Erfordiense ' now appears as Paul von Hachenburg. '- (2) As already mentioned, the heading Magdeburg has been a little increased at the.expense of LUbeck, the Herbarius of July, 148 3, having been transferred to Ghotan's activity before he left Magdeburg, and Simon Koch receiving three books which Proctor assigned to Matthaeus Brandis. The former change is due to the arguments of Dr. Haebler. (3) The difficulty of fixing at what date Albrecht Kunne began work at Memmingen is noted in t?e introductory remarks on his press. Kunne's undated books are arranged in this Catalogue in a stngle alphabetical sequence, the types numbered by Proctor 2, 4, 5, 6, being alternative types, used for different purposes, without any traceable succession. (4) The challenge of Mang von Hapsberg and Graf Eberhard's reply bring Conrad Fyner's activity at U rach to a very early date in 1480. The reasons for not sending him back to Esslingen in 148 3 have already been given. (5) Neither of the two printers at Passau has raised any special problems; in the case of most of Johann Petri's undated books,> indeed, there are external aids to their chronological arrangement. (6) The transference of the Expositio Symholi sancti Athanasii from Gotz at Cologne to Trier was made by Proctor himself. ALFRED W. POLLARD. 1

The Farinator itself is too closely linked with the Sermons of Albertus Magnus for any abiding doubt that it was printed by Greyfr. XVll

ELTVIL NICOLAUS BECHTERM ONTZE DATES: the first types used at Eltvil belong, with slight modifications, to the same fount as that used at Mainz I !! for the Catholicon of 1460 and two smaller books. One of these latter, the Thomas Aquinas de articulis fidei, was . "'- .'. (~ reprinted in the modified type without printer's name or date, perhaps, as it has only twelve leaves, as a trial venture. The only other books certainly printed at EltviI during the 15th century were four editions of the abridged LatinGerman dictionary known as the Vocabularius Ex Quo. The first of these, in the modified Catholicon type, states that it was begun by the late Heinrich Bechtermtintze at EltviI, and finished, 4 November, 1467, by his brother Nicolaus and Wigandus Spyess of Orthenberg. The second edition, in the same type with an additional s (see Burger, plate 110, upper half), was completed by Nicolaus Bechtermtintze, 5 June, 1469. The third, in a type (see Burger, plate 110, lower half) imitated from the text type of the 3I-line Mainz Indulgence, states its date as 12 March, 1472, and its place of origin as Eltvil, but does not name its printer, who is generally supposed, however, to have been BechtermUntze. The fourth edition names BechtermUntze as its printer, Eltvil as its place of origin, and as its date Saturday, the Feast of St. Thomas the Apostle, 1477, where either the day or the year must be ~rong, since 21 December fell on a Saturday in 1476, not in 1477. This book is in a type (see Burger, plate I I I) 1dentical with that used in 1477 by Peter Drach at Speier, and in his second Supplement Proctor suggested that three hooks ascribed to Drach in his Index (Nos. 2345-2347), together with one subsequently acquired, were probab~y printed at Eltvil. Partly, however, because BechtermUntze seems to have been an amateur printing occasional "S.k~u...lw\4 d\" '480 ~ edltions of the Vocabularius Ex Quo for some special reason, rather than a general printer likely at the end of his lAWdY"~ wwt c.~t( 1) career to produce four large volumes; partly because they can be connected by their paper and typographical arrangement with successive works by Drach, these books in the present catalogue are entered under Drach and not unde~ Bechtermtintze.

DATE: GUnther Zalner of Reutlingen completed his first dated book at Augsburg, 12 March,1468. According to the Benefactor-Book of the Charterhouse at Buxheim he died at the monastery 13 April, 1478. Landmarks in his career are made by his publishing an advertisement of his 1474 edition of the Pantheologia of Rainerus de Pisis and fourteen other books (Burger, Buchhandleranzeigen des IS- Jahrhunderts, No. 1 4), and by a later advertisement of eighteen books in 1476 (Burger, Ope cit., No. 20). The list of his books which he gave in 1474 and subsequent years to the Charterhouse at Buxheim (printed by Zapf, Augsburg~ Buchdruckergeschichte, p. x) is also useful.

Most of the majuscules proper to it are smaller and neater than those of type 140 , with which they are sometimes found mixed. The paragraph-mark is tall and in appearance thin, but the ends of the curved line project unusually far beyond the upright. This type was first used in the C Gregorius' printed in 1473 in the Monastery of SSe Ulrich and Afra, and as Bamler, who usually put his name to his books, omitted it from four out of five others entirely in this type, here catalogued, some or all of these may have been printed for the monastery. In 1475 and 1476 Bamler used the type in alternate sections with 140 in three books (lB. 5665, 5668, and 56 70 ), and in a second edition of the C Gregorius', all these beari~ his name. 119 [Po 31, smaller text type, closely similar in character to 140 , but with a very much smaller face in the . minuscules. three forms of A, two of D, &c. 95 !P. 4],} identical with GUnther Zainer's types of the same size, and no doubt from his stock.

He assigned two leaves to quire i and eleven to k.

MONASTERY OF SSe"'-: 1wcJ,V,-I ULRICH AND AFRA :t4.~. ct.. &.~ A~~J P..cL.ii\ (\~io),

DATES: information as to the printing done at thl tery largely depends on a~ont~porary chronicle Mill apublishe ~ quoted by Placidus Braun in his ' Notitia 1~l ~ ,~".- historico-litteraria' of the incunabula in the monastery's library (1788). After narrating how the Abbot Melchior von ~~..I4a ~t~ii'''' '1 Stamhaim resolved to embark on printing, despite all entreaties of his friends, Wittwer proceeds: Anno igitur ~'\' J , .," domini I47~ Reverendus in Christo Pater ac Dominus felicis memoriae Abbas Melchior, de Stamphaim prosapia natus, in Monasterio Sanctorum Vdalrici et Atrrae in Augusta Rhaetiae valde meritus, ob laudem omnipotentis Dei, et vniuersalis Ecclesiae vtilitatem, necnon sui Monasterii praefati rerum temporalium adcrescentiam, nisus est imprimere stanneis characteribus Dialogum beati Gregorii in moralibus in vuJgari qui finitus est 1473. Dein sermones aureos Magistri Leonardi de Vtino de sanctis, et finiti sunt 1474, sed compositi siue collecti per praedictum magistrum Leonardum de Vtino anno Domini 1446. Iussit etiam imprimi Vincentium in Naturali [sic for Historialil in tres partes, sed antequam finiretur, obiit idem Pater et Abbas vt infra dicetur, et per successorem suum compfeti sunt sermones et speculum. The making of presses occupied about a year, and the Abbot seems then to have caused to be printed the Speculum humanae saluationis (completed before the end of 1473) in GUnther Zainer's type 2, the Dialogi of Pope Gregory, and other popular theological works, dated 1473, in Johann Bamler's type 2, and the Speculum Historiale of ~ Vincent de Beauvais in Anton Sorg's type I. This last is dated 1474. and on the other hand we know from Wittwer that it was unfinished at the time of the Abbot's death on 30 January of that year. As it contains 1°41 leaves in large folio, it must have been begun much earlier than the Sermones de Sanctis of Leonardus de Vtino, also unfinished at that time, and also dated 147~ Earlier also than the Sermones must be the Compendium Morale of uncertain authorship, a copy of which was given to Tegemsee in 1473; the other four books in this type must be covered by Wittwer's statement that Abbot Melchior C cetera alia opuscula iussit imprimere '. Some of these may have been begun before his death, others probably belong to the time of his successor Henricus Friess. Differences of typographical practice make it unlikely that these books in type 105 were printed by the same workmen as the Speculum historiale, and it is probable that Anton Sorg was engaged on this and set up for himself soon after it was finished. The references to the Cambridge copies of SSe Ulrich and Afra books with manuscript dates of ownership by Ulrich von Ellenbog are from Proctor s article in his collected Essays. TVPES (see Plate XXXI): 103 [Po 2], Gothic text type, indistinguishable from that of Sorg, who presumably acquired it from the monastery after the death of Melchior von Stamhaim in January, 1474, and the subsequent completion of the Speculum Historiale. The size of the Speculum makes it certain that it must have been begun long before the Sermones de Sanctis of Leonardus de Utino finished about the same time. This 103 Gothic type must ' therefore, have preceded the 105 Roman which Proctor treated as the earlier type of the two. Not reproduced. 105 [Po I], Roman text type. The Q has a long tail and the u is close up to it.

JOHANN WIENER DATES: the first dated book known of this printer is an edition ofGuillermus, Postilla, 20 August, 1475. As however, type 120 (113) is already in its later stage in this book (see the reproduction in Burger's Monumenta, pI. 53: and notes to types below), the undated Augustinus de fide (lB. 611 3) and Vegetius (lB. 611 9) must be supposed to be printed before that date. Wiener's last dated book is the Nider, Praeceptorium, of 1479 (lB. 6'32); no book of the year 1478 is known, and his whole registered output comprises only twelve books. TYPES (see Plate XXXIII): 120 [Po I], Gothic text type, used in 1475 and 1476 , and perhaps earlier. The upper case resembl~ that of Zainer's type 118 [P.2]. T.wo forms of L are found. What.is no doubt a later state of the type is seen 10 IA. 6103, 6109, the measurement helDg reduced to about lIS byrecastlDg. A second (angular) (orm of A, and a paragraph-mark (with upper horn curled at point), found only in IA. 6103, seem new introductions; f with wide spreading top is found in both books, ' with the more usual straight tall here and there in IA. 610g only. The reproduction shows the type in its later state. Ilg [Po ~], Gothic text type, appears to have superseded I~O (lIS) in 14i6• It closely resembles Zainer 118 [Po 2] in general appearance, but M and many other capitals differ and the round (orm of A is not found.

WOODCUT CAPITALS: ornate capitals, ca. 18 mm. high, with foliage and shading, without frame; also dragon-S, like that used by J. Zainer at Ulm. In use in 1479. I:

DATES: Pftanzmann 'ein FUrsprech des Hofs zu Augsburg' printed one dated book in 1475, the Epistola Rabbi Samuel. Two other signed books are known, and, with the German Bible and a (fragmentary) edition of the Pfaff'von Kalenberg, make up his whole recorded output: the indulgences set forth in Copinger's Supplement (Part II, nos. 55~8, 5529) being excepted as doubtful. For a note by Ulrich von Ellenbog connecting Pftanzmann with the Quadragesimale viator is assigned to the press of SSe Ulrich and Afra, see p. 340. Proctor thought the note gave some ground for supposing that 'the Roman group of S. Ulrich books' might be Pflanzmann's own productions. TYPES (see Plate XXXIII): 107 [Po I], Gothic text type, used in the German Bible. Type 2 [P.] is not represented in the Museum collection; it is identified by Proctor and Dr. Haebler with J. Keller 123 [Po I], q. v.

AMBROSIUS

KELLER

DATES: in addition to the Aristotle and the De maioritate morbi of Gentilis printed in '479, a Latin-German Vocabulary printed in 1486 is ascribed to Ambros Keller by Panzer on the authority of Denis and Zapf. This last, however, may be the result of a fresh confusion arising out of the wrong date 146M (MCCCClxviii for MCCCClxxviii) in some copies of Johann Keller's Vocabularius (lB. 6204). TYPE: 120 [Po 1], indistinguishable from Zainer 118 [Po 2]; text-Lombards are common, and frequently used for whole lines at a time. Not reproduced.

HeUmann, Wetterprognosen und Wetterberichte des xv. und XVI. Jahrhunderts, &c. This tract consilts of eight leaves in type 120, the text running to the end of the verso of leaf 8, which is the longest page in the book. This would show that the issue to which the present fragment belongs could not have been complete in less than nine leaves; and it therefore probably represents a first proof which was afterwards compressed so as to save the extra leaf.
