sharp bright unmarked. Condizione: Near Fine. First edition. Introduction to the Catalogue: "Incunabula in the Vassar College Library" by Ronald D. Patkus, Head, Archives and Special Collections. Vassar's collection of incunabula has grown slowly but steadily since the 19th century. Appropriately enough, it appears that Matthew Vassar himself purchased the first incunable for the college. The founder acquired a book of hours printed in Paris by Philippe Pigouchet from trustee Rev. Elias Magoon, who was a famous collector of art. By 1917, the college had three incunabula: in addition to the Pigouchet hours; it had two volumes of a Bible with commentary by Nicholas de Lyra, and a Lives of the Fathers, often attributed to St. Jerome. By 1936, the college had fourteen incunabula; at this point there existed in the collection a predominance of books printed in Germany. The holdings continued to grow during the remainder of the 20th century, and many examples of early printing in Italy, especially Venice, were added. In 1977, when the library dedicated its Francis Fitz Randolph Rare Book Room, it was recorded that Vassar maintained thirty-six books printed before 1501, as well as à nearly one hundred leavesî printed before that date. At present, the college holds forty-two books and ninety-eight leaves. The growth of the incunabula collection would not have occurred without the generosity of donors. Apart from Matthew Vassar, the earliest donor was Edith Deane of the class of 1896, who gave to the college one volume of the Bible with commentary by Nicholas de Lyra, as well as the Lives of the Fathers, or Vitae patrum. Over the course of the twentieth century, alumnae were particularly helpful in the development of the collection. Individual graduates gave incunabula, and several class library funds supported other acquisitions. In addition, faculty, staff, and trustees gave fifteenth century books to the library. Of special note was the donation of eight incunabula, including several examples printed in Venice, by Mary Hill Randolph, VC '45-4. Francis Fitz Randolph, a trustee of the college after whom the library's rare book room is named, gave an interesting collection of leaves from books printed before 1501 55 pp.…
