PETRUS, Comestor (d.1178). Historia scholastica. Basel: [Johann Amerbach], 25 November 1486.
Chancery 2° (286 x 199mm). Gothic type, double column, initial spaces, guide-letters, opening initial in blue with red penwork, alternating red and blue Lombard initials and paragraph marks. (Without last leaf, l.1 repaired at corners, some worming at the beginning and end, occasional staining.) Contemporary blindtooled calf over wooden boards, title in gilt gothic letters on front board and in ink on book block, 2 clasps (rebacked, corners repaired, some chips to front board). Provenance: ownership inscription dated 1500 on title -- purchase note in 16th-century hand on title, early marginal annotations.
Petrus Comestor (his surname is a reference to his great love of reading) had charge of the theological school of Notre-Dame, Paris. This work, a widely read sacred history from Creation to the events described in the Acts of the Apostles, was written for his students. BMC suggests that this edition may have been the work of a printer using type discarded by Johann Amerbach as it does not feature in the lists of books presented by Amerbach to Basel Charterhouse. HC 5535 = H 5537; BMC III, 749; Polain(B) 3093; Goff P-465.
