APPENDIX A.
The Fifteenth Century Press.
(Supplementary to, and corrective of, pp. 1–4.)
The Oxford Press of the fifteenth century is a peculiarly interesting
one. At present fifteen works are known to belong to it, ranging in date
from “1468” (1478?) to 1486 (1486/7?). Not only is its origin quite
independent, so far as is known, of Caxton’s printing, not only are new
products of the press still from time to time discovered, but the battle
which has been waged about the date of its establishment has made the
“1468” book a veritable typographical battleground, and in Henry
Bradshaw’s opinion a touchstone of intellectual acumen.
In the first place some details of the various books will be given: then
an account of the type and presswork: and lastly a description of each
book supplementary to, and corrective of, that contained on pp. 1–4.
