JOHANNES DE SANCTO LAURENTIO (fl. 1480). Postillae evangeliorum dominicalium totius anni et aliquorum festorum. Brussels: [Fratres Vitae Communis,] 4 October 1480.

[Speyer: Peter Drach, about 1482-89.]First and only edition of a work from the first press at Brussels, with manuscript pastedowns. This collection of sermons was printed by the Brothers of the Common Life, who before the advent of printing had been granted special licenses for copying and illuminating in that city. Printing must have been a natural transition, and their earliest extant work is dated 1476. The present copy is bound with the second edition of a work on canon law by 13th-century chronicler Martin of Poland. The last copy of the Postillae to appear at auction was in 1905.
