There are neither signatures, catchwords, nor numerals. The present
is a large and desirable copy of this estimable impression: in blue
morocco binding.
724. Laus Virginis. Printed in the Office of
Fnst and Schoeffer. Without Fate. Folio.
This beautiful specimen of the large type of Fust and Schoeffer
appears to have escaped both Wtirdtwein and Panzer. It is a thin
volume, of only 9 leaves, and concludes without any indication of place
or date; but tlie shields in red, at the end of it, decidedly prove it to
have been executed in the office as above described. Such small pieces
of the early Mentz press, in the largest character, are of the rarest
occurrence. On the recto of the sirst leaf is this prefix :

Below, are 28 lines: a full page contains 31 lines. The shields are
below the 10th and last line of the recto of the 9th leaf. There are
neither signatures, catchwords, nor numerals. This rare and desirable
volume is elegantly bound in purple moroeco.

tibus Orationis. Printed hy JLlhertus de

This elegant and rare little volume seems, on reading the above title,
to be misplaced in its present order of arrangement: but it havingbeen
obtained by Lord Spencer subsequently to the completion of the depart-
ment of ‘ Grammar and Lexicography,’ it was thought advisable to
introduce it here. Much is said of its rarity by Laire, and not a little
is said to perplex the reader concerning its identity by Panzer. The
former says, * it is an impression wholly different from the Padua one of
the same year, and in the same character: it has no signatures j and
