C. Clair - Silber worked at Rome from 1480 until 1509. He was a
native of Winzburg + on account of his origin was sometimes
called Franck Alemenus. At first Silber printed mainly

books for pilgrims to the Holy City, manuels of
acclesiastical law + indulgences. He was the 1st printer
to obtain a privilege from the Roman Curia.
