Lamy (see Oxford, Bodleian Library, MSS Phillipps-Robinson, c. 413, fols 11r and 16r for Lamy's bills).

Geminianus de Exemplis. 1499.', p. 3 and in his ‘Catalogue of Printed Books at Middle Hill’ (Middle Hill, 1828): ‘[no.] 1346 Geminiano (Johannes de Sto.) Summa de Exemplis Rerum. 4to. Basil. 1499.’, p.19."
