pseudo-ALBERTUS MAGNUS. Sermones de tempore et de sanctis . Ulm: Johann Zainer, [ca. 1478-80]. Chancery 2° (274x202mm). Collation: [1 12 2-11 8 12 12 13-26 8 27-28 6 29 8 ] (1/1 blank, 1/2r register, 2/1r sermones de sanctis, 12/12v colophon, 13/1r sermones de tempore, 29/8r colophon, 29/8v blank). 235 (of 236, without first blank) leaves. 41 lines. Type: 4:96 a G (text), 5:136G (headings and headlines). 2- to 6-line initials and paragraph marks in red, early quiring visible in some upper margins. (Foxing in some leaves, slight worm-tracking at inner extremities of first few leaves, small wormholes in final 3 quires affecting a few letters.) Contemporary pigskin over wooden boards, blindstamped, single brass fore-edge clasp, title written on lower and fore-edge, (leather missing from first spine compartment with small adjoining sections on covers repaired); an Augsburg binding by the Schwinck-master, Schwenke-Sammlung Flechtwerk 5a = Kyriss shop 76, stamps 1-4. Provenance : Bolzano, Reformed Franciscans; marginal annotations in an early hand, one marginal scribble in red pencil. Second of three undated editions printed by Zainer. Texts by, or thought to be by, Albertus Magnus dominated the printing program of Zainer's early years, and they, along with other Dominican authors published by Zainer, were probably intended for the Dominican convent at Ulm (see Amelung, Frühdruck , p.91). H *470; GW 776; BMC II, 528 (IB. 9207); Goff A-332; Polain(B) 4119; IGI 234; BSB A-218
