Not incunabula

[edit]

The “ study of incunabula”. Incunabula are printed books, whereas Lombardic script is a wholly manuscript hand. Lombardic capitals were laboriously inserted by hand into some luxurious early printed books, but they didn’t get rendered as typefaces until modern times. I hesitated to eliminate this, apparently a misunderstanding of the German references.```` Wetman (talk) 16:36, 4 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
