In Bavaria found a fragment of a Gutenberg Bible
In Bavaria found a page of the Bible, issued by Johann Gutenberg in the first half of the 1450-ies. For centuries it was used as the cover for another book.
“The page of the Bible, which is considered the starting point of printing, and was released by Johann Gutenberg in the first half of the 1450-ies, for centuries, used as covers for the other books,” States the publication.
As noted, to date, has survived at least fifty of the 180 copies of this Bible made by German printing pioneer Johann Gutenberg (Johannes Gutenberg). Each of them is worth several million euros. Who wrapped the book in the library of Augsburg, scientists have not yet figured out. Found the incunabula just now.
