Printed Leaf from Polychronicon
n.p. [Peter Treveris], [1527]. This is probably a leaf from the Treveris printing in 1527 of Higden's Polychronicon. The previous owner's research of this leaf indicated that this is the likely source although he explored other possibilities as seen in his notes. Printed in Early Modern English in double columns. With book number in Latin in upper margin and shoulder notes. There is a handsome decorated five line initial, some underlining in faded ink and two handwritten notes in the left margin of the recto. Aging to the pages, and browning and light chipping where removed from a book. Slight crease to margin bottom. Still very good condition and a nice example of early 16th century printing. EPH/051723. Very Good. More
