he Catholican,
a large theological grammar and dictionary, is the last major printed work
attibuted to Gutenberg. This leaf is from the incomplete Sloan-Krech copy
of the Catholican which was broken up and sold shortly after World
War Two. The edition, of which this copy forms a part, is noted as the first
to name its place of printing. It is hand illuminated in red, and some authorities
conjecture the illumination was by Gutenberg himself. |
