[Torrebelvicino: Giovanni Leonardo Longo, after 22 June 1478]. Folio.
BMC and IGI assign to [Vicenza], but Longo moved to Torrebelvicino in July 1477 (see D. E. Rhodes, La tipografia nel secolo XV a Vicenza, Santorso e Torrebelvicino (Vicenza, 1987)); Pr lists as [unassigned, Italy]; Sheppard dates [c.1478]. BMC notes the correspondences and differences between this edition and Venice: Filippo di Pietro, 22 June 1478, and suggests ‘that the present edition is a reprint of Filippo's'.
