TitleOpusculum de Herone et Leandro [Greek]. With Latin version of Marcus Musurus
ImprintVenice : Aldus Manutius, Romanus, [before Nov. 1495-1497?]
Format4°
NotesThe Greek and Latin texts were printed on separate quires which were then folded so that the texts appear in parallel. The Greek portion is shown by Aldus' prefatory letter to have been printed before the first volume of Aristotle, dated 1 Nov. 1495. The Latin is printed in two post-1495 types, one of which has a paragraph mark not traced before 1497 (BMC, based on Proctor, Printing of Greek, pp.95-96)
