EDITIO PRINCEPS of an extremely scarce juristic work and a
finely printed specimen of a rare press of Bologna, the first book of which
appeared in 1493. This book is printed with the gothic types 7 and 10 and the roman
type 6. .Proctor says, ’’that it is not all certain that Benedictus Faelli was ever a
printer till about 1497 or 1498; it may at least be considered a fact that before April
1493 he was a stationer only. This is sufficiently proved by the wording of the colo-
phons in the books printed for him from 1487 to 1491 by Franc. (Plato) de Benedictis.
In Apr. 1493 we first find types not easily identified with those of other printers; but
from the similarity of many of the types it seems probable that a large proportion of
the books here ascribed to Benedictus are the productions of others; many indeed,
state that they are printed ‘impensis Benedicti Hectoris’.” From this we can state
that it is not impossible that our book belongs to the first products of Benedictus
Hectoris.
Our copy is in a very fine state of preservation with very large mar-
gins (nearly 3 indies). A few leaves are insignificantly stained, in the first leaves a
few very small wormholes.
No copy in U. S. A. (acc. to Census).
