Summary:
|
Consists of an illuminated leaf printed on both sides, from the original edition of the 42-line Gutenberg Bible printed in Mainz, ca. 1454-1455.
Comprises v. 2, leaf [412], containing Jeremiah chapter 19, verses 4-15, chapter 20, and chapter 21.
Rubricated: chapter 20 begins with a 2-line manuscript initial in blue. Chapter 21 begins with a 2-line manuscipt initial in red. Each chapter begins with a Roman numeral (chapter no.) in red and blue; verses unnumbered. Each sentence begins with a capital letter, highlighted in red. Letters of running title alternate in red and blue.
The original leaf is mounted on p. [11] of the bound accompanying material. The Gutenberg Bible leaf is from an imperfect copy which was broken up and distributed by Gabriel Wells. With each fragment is bound a bibliographical essay by A. Edward Newton (in English), with imprint: New York: Gabriel Wells, 1921.
