#OldCoolBooks | May 5: incunabulum

Other than the Gutenberg Bible, another famous incunabulum is the Nuremberg Chronicle Written by Hartmann Schedel and printed by Anton Koberger in 1493. #bookhistory

I just love the illustrations in this book. They are beautiful & amazing. The above is a woodcut of Nuremberg.

New episode up at https://youtu.be/2setN7LACSU! In which I discuss printing history, woodcuts, and mispronounce many names!
