(BIBLE). Sepher Tehillim… Liber Psalmorum. FIRST EDITION, prepared by Elias Hutter. Title has vignette of King David playing the harp. ff. (128). Each Psalm numbered in ink, browned, title remargined. Modern boards. Folio. Vinograd, Hamburg 14; Darlow and Moule, p. 710, no. 5108. Hamburg, Froben, 1636. This edition of the Hebrew Psalms is a marvel of typography as the editor, Elias Hutter, bolded the root letters (Shorashim) of each word, leaving the rest of the word in hollow type. Furthermore, when a root letter of any word does not appear, it is printed in small type above the line.
