No consistent method of updating Harman's work has been used over the past quarter century, a practice that hinders access to the collection. To find library holdings of incunabula not listed in Harman, one must search a chronological card file, an annotated typescript of Harman's work, and an annotated edition all in the Rare Book and Special Collections Library as well as the online catalog. Even after consulting all of these sources and reconciling their discrepancies, one's search may not end satisfactorily. The primary goal of the present work is to provide a supplement to Harman by combining these resources into one reference work for the student of early printing and publishing history. The secondary goal of this work is to provide copy-specific descriptions of the items, a feature that as of this writing is seriously lacking or incorrect in most of the online records. Such annotations describe the history of the individual copies and exhibit the uniqueness of the Illinois collection. According to The Illustrated ISTC, 2nd edition, three of the 25 titles in this catalog are unique in North American collections (items 5, 16, and 21). Finally, but not least of all, it is my hope that this catalog will inspire a renewed interest in the acquisition and study of incunabula at the University of Illinois. Methodology Items are arranged alphabetically by main entry in the form established by Goff. It is easier to locate specific works with Goff's arrangement as opposed to that used by Robert Proctor, which illustrates the chronological development and spread of printing. Proctor's arrangement, while once useful, does not lend itself to current research methods. Like Harman, I have included an index of printers and places of imprint, which the student of printing history will find useful. Printers' and publishers' names like those of the authors follow the form given in Goff and cities are listed by their modern English names. Countries are not listed due to the complexity and instability of political boundaries throughout history. IV A physical description of each edition follows the main entry and imprint information. Format is given first, followed by the collational formula and number of leaves of an ideal copy, if available. These formulas are taken from the Gesamtkatalog der Wiegendrucke (GW) or the Catalogue of Books Printed in the XVth Century Now in the British Museum (BMC). When such information is not available it is taken directly from the copy in hand. A notation is given of any misnumbered or blank leaves; unnumbered leaves are indicated within square brackets. The presence of illustrations or woodcuts is noted next followed by a measurement in millimeters of the first leaf in each copy. Lacunae are indicated at the end of each physical description. Each entry is accompanied by references to standard catalogs and bibliographies for example, Hain, GW, and BMC in which further descriptions will be found. Users may be interested to know which other libraries own particular editions; for this purpose, IISTC2 numbers are also provided. Copy-specific descriptions are given for each item in the paragraphs marked "Notes". Added entries such as editor, translator, or commentator are recorded here. A description of rubrication, marginalia, and binding follows. All of the descriptive terms in this section follow the recommendations in Binding Terms: A Thesaurus for Use in Rare Book and Special Collections Cataloging (Chicago: Association of College & Research Libraries, 1988). Provenance is recorded next with transcriptions of ownership markings, where applicable (and decipherable). Every effort has been made to provide details of provenance using local resources. It should be noted that University of Illinois bookplates and markings are not described. Likewise, the presence of references to standard bibliographies which are written in each copy is not recorded. The month and year of purchase are listed last, when they are ascertainable, with applicable references to sale catalogs. Finally, the University of Illinois shelf mark of each item is given to facilitate retrieval. Lowercase letter "L" in shelf marks is indicated thus, '%" to avoid confusion with other numbers or letters. All of the incunabula in this catalog are housed in the closed stacks of the Rare Book and Special Collections Library and may be requested from staff there for onsite consultation. Individual leaves of incunabula have been included in this catalog because they, too, contribute to the history of early printing. However, they are not counted as whole incunabula and are listed in a separate section. Acknowledgments The format for this supplement is based in large part on James E. Walsh's A Catalogue of the Fifteenth-Century Printed Books in the Harvard University Library (Binghamton, New York: Medieval & Renaissance Texts & Studies, 1991-1997), Margaret B. Stillwell's The Beginning of the World of Books, 1450- 1470 (New York: Bibliographical Society of America, 1972), and Frederick R. Goff's Incunabula in American Libraries: A Third Census (New York: Bibliographical Society of America, 1964). I would like to thank D. W. Krummel and Gene Rinkel who gave early encouragement for this project. Thanks are due also to Sidney E. Berger, Alvan Bregman, Valerie Hotchkiss, and David R. Whitesell who read drafts of this catalog and provided valuable suggestions. The faculty and staff of the Rare Book and Special Collections Library of the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign answered many requests without which this project never would have been completed. I alone am responsible for any errors which may be lurking among these pages. VI References I. Abbreviated References BMC Catalogue of Books Printed in the XVth Century Now in the British Museum.
