| The Huntington Library’s distinguished holdings include over 5,200 incunabula—the second-largest such collection in the United States. Assembled through a combination of discriminating individual selections and bold en-bloc purchases, the books cover the map of 15th-century printing activity. They are especially rich in Italian and German imprints but also include rarities from England and the Iberian Peninsula. The Huntington incunabula constitute one of the cornerstones of Scott Husby’s Bookbindings on Incunables database which revealed that nearly a quarter of the books have contemporary bindings. | The Huntington Library’s distinguished holdings include over 5,200 incunabula—the second-largest such collection in the United States.
