V. FERNANDEZ.
One of the most noteworthy names in the early annals of Spanish printing is that of Juan de Rosembach de Haydellerich, who printed books in Barcelona, 1493–8, and again at the beginning of the sixteenth century; in Perpignan, 1500; in Tarragona, 1490, and in Montserrat. In 1499 he printed at Tarragona the famous “Missal de aquel Arzobispado,” which Mendez declares to be “muy recomendable por varias circumstancias.” At Barcelona he printed in 1526 an edition of the “Oficias de Cicero.” The Marks of this printer vary considerably, but the example here reproduced may be regarded as a representative one. Of the early Lisbon printers, Valentin Fernandez “de la Provincia de Moravia” was probably the first to use a Mark (here reproduced), one of his publications being the “Glosa sobre las Coplas” of Jorge Manrique, 1501.
[1] The reader will find on [page 25] a series of thirty reduced reproductions of Marks used for the most part by the Italian printers. These are given after Orlandi (“Origine e Progressi della Stampa,” 1722) and Horne (“Introduction to the Study of Bibliography,” 1814), but several of the names are open to question from the fact that the former author has given no account either of the places at which they worked, or of the books which they printed.
