Cambridge Cambridge University Library 1992 large 8vo. stiff paper wrappers. xxviii, 164 pages.
Some account records of the early sixteenth-century Cambridge stationer and binder, Garrett Godfrey (????-1539) which were discovered at the Cambridge University Library in the boards of a volume bound by him. Text arranged so that a section of the accounts is transcribed on the left-hand page, with notes and explanations, corresponding line for line, on the right-hand page. Since these records show buyers (often Cambridge tutors), titles and quantities, and prices, one may form some notion of books used at Cambridge in the early 16th century, as well as of the state of the book trade then. With references, appendices (including some material from other Godfrey bindings), and indexes.
