Although the printing of this book is generally attributed to Rusch in Strasbourg for Koberger of Nuremberg, 3 of the 4 types employed in it are those of Johannes Amerbach of Basel, from whom Rusch is known to have borrowed types; but it is possible, judging from the wording of some of Rusch's letters to Amerbach, that Amerbach himself was the printer. On the printing and dating of this ed., see F. Geldner, "Amerbach-Studien", Archiv für Geschichte des Buchwesens 23 (1982), col. 684-688.

Text printed in gothic type in 2 columns of interlineated text surround by a glossary on paper with watermarks including an eight-petalled flower (similar to Briquet 6605), crescent with cross (similar to Briquet 5227), and bulls head.

Signed, but signatures do not reflect the order of the quires ; they may represent the seven or eight presses at which the work proceeded. Leaves unnumbered.
