History of publishing - Early Printing, Gutenberg, Incunabula
The age of early printing: 1450-1550. Before the invention of printing, the number of manuscript books in Europe could be counted in thousands.By 1500, after only 50 years of printing, there were more than 9,000,000 books. These figures indicate the impact of the press, the rapidity with which it spread, the need for an artificial script, and the vulnerability of written culture up to that time.
