In most cases no explanation is given of the conje<5tural dates assigned to them, and it is difficult to see why, e.g., no. 118, printed with types 4 and 6, should be marked 'kaum vor 1499,' whereas no. 126, printed with the same types and apparently much the same in general appearance, is allowed the very wide margin of ' etwa 1498- 1508.' Two further points may also be mentioned here: (i) The description in the British Museum Catalogue of no. 28 as connected with Wlirzburg is supported by the mention of S.

Incunabula Catalogue). Still, these are small blemishes, and students of early printing will be grateful to the authors for their labour, and look forward to the second instalment. V. SCHOLDEREK.
