Erste griechische Type bei Aldus Ist gleich Type 1:146Gr auf kleinerem Kegel BMC V 551: "125 Gk. [P. 1*], cursive text type, with numerous ligatures and contractions, the short letters cast at the foot of the face (so as to give a long shoulder for accented sorts) and the low strokes kerned on to the line below, as is shown by an accidentally printed space on l8b of the Lascaris, March, 1495 (IA. 24383) (= M17107), the only book in which this state of the type is found. Cf. 146 Gk. [P. 1] below, with reproduction." |

| 1:146Gr | ma10567 | 1495-1499 |
Zweiter Zustand von Type 1*:121Gr, Neuguss auf größerem Kegel mit reduziertem Formeninventar BMC V 551: "146 Gk. [P. 1], cursive text type, the face substantially as that of 125 Gk. [P. 1*], but with less white between the letters and with a reduction in the number of ordinary sorts and an addition to that of the ligatures and contractions. Cast on the ordinary plan, the accents being mostly separate. Accented capitals. In use in 1495-July, 1498." |

| 2:114R | ma10568 | Qu|-I (Antiqua) | 1495-1500 |
BMC V 551: "114 R. [P. 2], Aldine text type, with accents, semicolons and commas. Capitals black and rather small, single
Qu with very long straight tail ending in an upward bend, M with sloping shanks, S leaning to right; e with horizontal
loop line, right shank of h slightly rounded, dotted i, narrow, slightly leaning s, peculiar alternative ae in which
the hook of a is suppressed, made up
of q and semi-colon, small ꝯ; alternative a, e, m, t, &c., with lengthened
serifs for use at ends of lines common at first; single hyphen, at first horizontal, afterwards also slanting, outline ⁌ with double upright in and after January, 1497. In use in 1495/6-June, 1499, superseded by 115 R (= Type 2**:115R)." Zu unterscheiden lt. BMC V 551: "114 R*., text type, not distinguished by Proctor. Apparently a combination of the lower-case of 114 R. [P. 2] with larger majuscules of more normal Venetian style. Single Qu with well-curved tail, two forms of A, H, M, S. Found only in a reprint of the first sheet of the 1498 Politian (cf. IB. 24473), where it looks very fresh. Not reproduced." Vgl. M34727. BMC beschreibt eine Variante in einem der Londoner Ex., möglicherweise spätere Ergänzung/Variante. |

| 2*:110R | ma11954 | Qu|-K (keine Klassifizierung) (Antiqua) | 1499-1499 |
Zu streichen? Vgl. BMC V 552: "The appearance of a type 2* in Dr. Haebler's list (Qu|, 109/10) is due to a misunderstanding." |
|
| 2**:115R | ma10569 | (Antiqua) | 1499-1499 |
BMC V 551: "115 R., Aldine text type, not distinguished by Proctor. Again a combination of the lower-case of 114 R. [P. 2]
with other majuscules, for the most part slightly larger and less black than the old. Q appears to have a slight
wave in the straight of the tail, A has broad feet, R has smaller bowl and proportionately longer tail, S does not
lean. An admixture of the original forms still persists (cf. facsimile), and in the Firmicus, October, 1499 (IB. 24486),
where both types are used, 114 R. shows some of the later forms. In use from July, 1499, onwards." |
|
| 3:108R | ma10570 | Q|u-D (Antiqua) | 1494-1498 |
BMC V 551: "108 R. [P. 3], text type, with separate drop-tail Q set close to u, stroked i, t with short serif, large 9, double
sloping and single horizontal hyphen. Apparently as De Quarengiis 109 R. [P. 5] (= Type 5:109R bei Petrus de Quarengis (Venedig, Offizin 125)).
Dr. Haebler's measurement. In use in 1495. Not reproduced." i mit Schrägstrich |
|
| 4:81R | ma10571 | Qu|-G (Antiqua) | 1495-1499 |
BMC V 551: "81 R. [P. 4], small text type, rather heavy, with small capitals; single Qu with long, almost horizontal tail, very
small ꝯ,
large sloping single hyphen. Apparently as Pincius 80 RB. [P. 15] (= Type 15:80R bei Philippus Pincius (Venedig, Offizin 104)), Jo. Rubeus 80 R. [P. 3] (= Type 3:80R bei Johannes und Albertinus Rubeus (Venedig, Offizin 90)), &c. Found only on one page of the 1495 Aristotle (IB. 24395).
Cf. 82 R. [P. 10] (= Type 10:82R) below. Not reproduced." |
|
| 5:108R | ma11955 | (Antiqua) |
Zu streichen? Ist = Type 3:108R? Vgl. aber BMC V 551: "110 RA. [P. 5], text type, apparently differing from 108 R. [P. 3] (= Type 3:108R) only in t, which has a broad serif. Found only in a few lines of the 1495 Gaza (IA. 24398) (= GW10562). Measurement approximate. Not reproduced." Ebenfalls BMC V 551: "110 RB., text type, not distinguished by Proctor. Bold R, e with very shallow loop, dotted i. Probably as De Choris 108 R. [P. 12] (= Type 12:108R bei Bernardinus de Choris (Venedig, Offizin 98)), &c. Found only in a few lines of the 1495 Gaza (= GW10562). Measurement approximate. Not reproduced." In GW10562 nur Type 3:108R verzeichnet! |

BMC V 551: "83 R. [P. 6], round commentary type, single Qu, e with shallow loop, t with blunt top. As Locatellus
80 R. [P. 5] (= Type 5:80R bei Bonetus Locatellus (Venedig, Offizin 85)),
De Choris 80 R. [P. 7] (= Type 7:80R bei Bernardinus de Choris (Venedig, Offizin 98)), &c., in face. In use in 1495, 1495/6. Not reproduced." |
|
| 7:114Gr | ma10573 | 1496-1499 |
BMC V 551: "114 Gk. [P. 7], cursive text type. 'Practically a reduced copy of the larger type [P. 1], it shows a firmer and
more practised hand, and avoids many of the extravagances of the earlier type, while still full of minute variations
and elaborate contractions' (Proctor). Cast on a disproportionately large body to range with 114 R. [P. 2], but also
found cut down for use with 87 R. [P. 8] (= Type 8:87R). In use from August, 1496 to the end of 1499." |
GfT 1369 |
|
| 8:87R | ma10574 | Qu|-K1 (Antiqua) | 1497-1497 |
BMC V 551: "87 R. [P. 8], small Aldine text type, a lighter copy of 114 R. [P. 2] (= Type 2:114R).
Single Qu; comma almost below line, single short slanting hyphen. In use in 1497." |
|
| 9:84Gr | ma10575 | 1499-1499 |
BMC V 551: "84 Gk. [P. 9], small light cursive text type, 'of very flowing character, with a large number of ligatures, but
fewer contractions than the larger founts ... considering its small size, very legible, owing to the fineness and uniformity
of the lines ... The capitals are, however, ... too small and out of character; they appear to be largely
identical with those used in the early books ... printed in the italic type of Aldus' (Proctor). First found, in
small quantities and mostly without accents, in the Perottus, July, 1499 (IB. 24495) (= M31090),
but probably not used in bulk until 1501." |
GfT 1370 |
|
| 10:82R | ma10576 | Qu|-G und Q|u-C (Antiqua) | 1499-1500 |
BMC V 552: "82 R. [P. 10], small text type. (1) At first (July, 1499) this is a revival of 81 R. [P. 4], with alternative separate
Q (as in facsimile), 5 leaning to right, larger 9, small nearly horizontal hyphen and a comma. (2) In December,
1499, the lower-case is combined with a set of lighter capitals evidently intended as smaller copies of those of
114 R. [P. 2].; they normally have very long-tailed Aldine Q but also show the separate Q with short tail found as
an alternative in July, 1499. These capitals, at first mostly used massed, become normal with the type in 1500,
except that the original small single Qu persists and the Aldine Q is discarded." |

| 11:80R | ma13988 | nicht belegt (Kursiv) | 1500-1500 |
Kursive Erst ab 1501 als komplette Type in Gebrauch (erstmals in Vergil: Opera. Venedig: Aldus Manutius, IV.1501, EDIT 16 CNCE 55823) Im 15. Jahrhundert einige Minuskeln im Hlzs. v. GW06222 (dort Bl. 10b) BMC V 552: "80 Ital., not distinguished by Proctor. A few words of the Aidine italic, without majuscules, are found in the Catarina da Siena, Epistole, September, 1500 (IB. 24504). Measurement approximate. Not reproduced." |

Nur einige Wörter in M34727, Bl. H8a |

| 13:114H | ma14207 | quadr. (Quadratisch) | 1499-1499 |
Nur einige Wörter in GW07223, Bl. b8b Schriftbild deutlich kleiner als Type 12:114H, aber Kegelhöhe offenbar wie bei der im Druck als Texttype verwendeten Type 2:114R |
