Chancery 2o (284 x 190 mm). Collation: a8 b10 (a1r title, a1v blank, a2r alphabetical index, b10r table of contents); d-e8 f-n6 o8 p6 q8 r-v6 x8 y6 A-C6 (d1r text, C6r colophon, C6v blank). 160 leaves, d1-C6 foliated (with errors). Double column. 53 lines and headline. Types: 1:180G (title, headlines); 13:80G (text). 2- to 4-line initial spaces, most with printed guide letters. Lombard initials, paragraph marks and capital strokes supplied in red (the red pigment oxidizing). Incorrect signatures to p2 and p3 corrected by the rubricator. (Minor marginal worming to first and last few leaves, h5r with small stain and closed tear affecting first line of text, occasional light mostly marginal dampstaining.) 20th-century black shagreen, covers with gilt monogram GME(?)

Provenance: Johann Carl Koken (ca. 1711-1773) of Hannover, scholar and librarian, editor of Luther Bible (Hildesheim 1758) (1758 inscription on title-page) -- M. Tydeman (1803 inscription and notes on lower flyleaf) -- Syracuse Public Library (bookplate).
Only Grninger edition of a popular dictionary for monks, one of 23 fifteenth-century editions, containing explanations of words found in the Bible, discussions of orthography and accent, and citations of other religious works. Johannes Reinhardi from Grninger learned printing in Basel before opening his own shop in Strassburg in 1483. His abundant and diverse output, amounting to over 150 editions by the end of the century, was directed largely to the traditional markets of members of the Church and students of law and theology, but also included a number of contemporary works intended for humanist readers and illustrated vernacular texts that would have appealed to the broadest readership.
