About This Item

Strassburg: Adolf Rusch, Strassburg, for Anton Koberger at Nuremburg, 1480. A large folio leaf from the incunable Latin Bible printed by Adolf Rusch, Strassburg, for Anton Koberger at Nuremburg, not before 1480. The leaf is from the Book of Job & measures 420 x 325 mm (16 ½ x 12 ¾ inches) printed in two columns, nicely hand rubricated with paragraph marks and initial letters in red. Small tears in lower margin with no loss. Fresh and very clean. See Goff, Incunabula in American Libraries (1964), item Goff B-607; ISTC ib00607000.

¶ Imprint as Sack (Freiburg) 656. Ascribed to the Basel press of Johann Amerbach by A. Hartmann (Amerbach-korrespondenz (1942), I, p. 2, n. 2). The printing, however, seems to have been done by Rusch at Strassburg with types borrowed from Amerbach: F. Geldner in Archiv für Geschichte des Buchwesens, 23 (1982), cols 684-8. GW dates shortly after 23 Sept. 1481 but manuscript notes in the Sion College copy and in Oates 124 are dated 1480. This is the earliest Latin Bible printed with glosses, produced by Adolf Rusch for Anton Koberger ca. 1481.
