1 It would have been a help if Dr. Bezzel had identified her editions by the numbers of these bibliographies.

2 With very few exceptions, according to Dr. Bezzel. It would probably have been well if she had informed the reader of copies she was unable to inspect.

3 It should be noted, as Dr. Bezzel has kindly confirmed, that the colophon of No. 1314 is given incorrectly. It actually reads: ARGENTINAE APVD IOANNEM || Knoblouchium Anno M. D. XXII. She has also confirmed that there should be a line ending after “ex” in the title of No. 1315.

6 I have examined a microfilm of the copy in the Universitätsbibliothek at Würzburg. The printer's device on sig. H8V is the fourth of Knoblouch's devices given by Schmidt in vol. 7 on the unnumbered page following p. 96. Schmidt says his No. 249 has the third device (he worked with the copy in the city library at Strassburg), but the copy in the university library at Ghent (of which I have seen a microfilm) has the fourth device.
