Fol. Goth, letter, 2 cols., 78 lines of commentary, 55“5^ lines of
text, 118 unn. (the last blank) + 60 unn. leaves (the first blank). Prin-
ted in red and black. With numerous capitals supplied in red, the
first with pen-drawn “Maiblumen”-ornaments. Very nice original
monastic binding, panel divided into lozenge compartments, these
are filled with different composed small stamps, “ drawer-handle” tools, lo-
zenge tool containing a rose, and other tools with floral ornaments, the
whole surrounded by a border composed of tools of labels filled with a
five-petalled rose, on the utmost row of the cover a few labels with the

(= Praedicatores Wiennensesf With two clasps. Frs. 1200.—
Hain*-Cop. 3603 and 5427, Copinger HI, p. 248 and 255. Proctor 2018 and 2015,
Brit. Mus. Cat. II, p. 421/22. Hase, Die Koberger, 60 and 63.
Rare editions of these two famous fundamental works of canon law. Eadi of
these editions contains the full colophon of Koberger printed in red.
The two books — and this is the special value of this copy — are bound
together in an extremely finely preserved monastic binding, bound still about
14.85-90 by the bindery of the Dominican Monastery at Vienna (with its initials PWP),
(cf. the description of another specimen in Goldschmidt, Book-bindings no. 9 and the
rubbings on plate C). The pigskin is slightly rubbed at a few places, but otherwise
the tooling is very fresh, the bads, is entirely intact and both the clasps are existing
with its embossed attachments.
Two leaves from a Latin vellum MS. of the 15th cent, are used as end-papers.
Incunables in such finely preserved, signed monastic bindings
are very rare. See Reproduction> PIate 1U.

didly illuminated capital letter with large floreated scroll.
Rubricated copy, initial letters supplied in red and blue. Old wooden
boards covered with blind stamped leather, the sides divided by mat work
bands into lozenges and filled with rosettes, border of jleurs-de-lis and
scrolls with ‘maria’. (Original binding by Blasius Confu-

monastic binder and somewhat rubbed, clasps gone.) Frs. 1000.—
