Description:
"No place, printer or date of publication. It was assigned by Legrand to the year 1517 and to the press of the Greek College (Gymnasium) in Rome ... However, this book is actually an incunable. It was printed in Florence by Alopa with the type designed by Ianos Laskaris. This type was later used by the Greek College press in Rome as well, hence the erroneous ascription"-- Layton, E.
