Notes
1. See Appendixes A, B.
2. Separate leaves from rare and costly books are given in G. E. Klemming’s Sveriges äldre liturgiska literatur, Stockholm, 1879—a practice which cannot be approved—but no local press has as yet been similarly illustrated.
3. Separate copies can only be obtained by ordering them from the Clarendon Press, and are not supplied by the Society.
4. For a discussion of special points connected with the Fifteenth Century Oxford Press, see Appendix A.
5. For a general discussion of the circumstances of the Early Sixteenth Century Oxford Press, see Appendix B.
6. None is paged: nor are there catchwords.
7. Exclusive of headline, signatures, and marginal notes.
8. With fragments of the book, independently of copies.
9. As these pages pass through the press I am informed by Mr. E. G. Duff that Lord Crawford possesses an edition of Horace’s Opuscula printed in “1470” with signatures.
10. Blades was under the erroneous impression that Koelhoff printed at Lübeck, instead of Cologne: where also books with manuscript signatures occur later than 1472.
11. In 1467 Ulric Zel of Cologne (see p. 242) was unacquainted with the setting-rule, which made evenness easy: he adopted it in 1468–9, but Colard Mansion at Bruges not till 1478 (Blades, Books in Chains, p. 128).
12. AELFREDVS. | LEGVM. ANGLIAE. | ACADEMIAE. OXON. | CONDITOR.
13. “A nativitate Christi ducentesimae nonagesimae quintae Olympiadis anno. II. VII. Idus Decembres,” = 7 Dec. 1472.
14. In 1528 we find a John Scolar, probably identical with the Oxford printer, printing a Breviary at Abingdon near Oxford for the use of the Abbey.
15. With privilege.
16. “St. Mary’s” and “St. Peter’s”, without qualification, are throughout this Appendix used for the parishes of St. Mary the Virgin and St. Peter-in-the-East.
17. E., the English Praise of Musicke: L., the Latin Apologia musices.
18. The references to impr. 84 b in 1630–32 are errors for 84 a.
19. “Oxoniæ” simply is found on an Appendix by Hen. Stanley, 1630, but is not a genuine imprint (see p. 233).
20. W. Jaggard printed in London for Turner in Oxford in 1624.
21. i. e. the printer was either a London man (as in 1625) or, if at Oxford, Lichfield (as in 1627–8, 1632, 1638).
22. John Norton printed in London for Bowman in Oxford, 1634.
R. Bishop printed in London for Bowman in Oxford, 1636.
