Summary

For readers at all levels, the advent of new techniques of reproduction for print and manuscript transformed the study of old books, introducing them to audiences for whom they were unfamiliar. Many of the more elaborate facsimiles were produced in extremely limited editions, and some had a value more antiquarian than literary; but the principal stimulus was a new market among those curious yet unable to buy original editions.
