REPERTORIUM BIBLIOGRAPHICUM IN QUO LIBRI OMNES AB ARTE TY...
by Hain, Ludovici

A reprint of the 1826-1838 edition. "The basic bibliography to which anyone working on fifteenth-century books refers to or is referred to."- Breslauer & Folter, Bibliography 124. The methodology used by Hain, i.e. whenever possible printing the beginning and end, line by line, of every work cited, and giving details such as size, format, kind of type, pagination, etc., allows exact identification of incunabula. Although most very early works lacked a specific title, the information supplied by Hains, together with a textual description, makes an error in identification "practically out of the question." -Sheehy AA269. This four-volume set can be called the foundation work for the identification of incunabula.
