AuthorDati, Gregorio
TitleLa Sfera [Italian verse]
Imprint[Florence : Lorenzo Morgiani and Johannes Petri, for] Piero Pacini, [about 1497-1500]
Format4°
NotesThis unrecorded edition appears to have been the model for GW 8031 (Goff D53), with same cuts and disposition of text. Differs from GW 8031 transcription in [a2]: 'incipit', b1: 'uengon', b4v: 'Gregorius ... caro ... qualiacunque ... pacini'. The correction of the misprint 'caro' to 'raro' in GW 8031, and further wear to the woodcut blocks there, suggest that this is the earlier of the two editions. Signed a3, b, b2 only. Woodcut maps
Sometimes attributed to Leonardo Dati
