Atlas of Early Printing
"This site depicts the spread of printing through Europe in the fifty
years following the European refinement of the tools and process to make
impressions from movable type cast in metal." View a map of Europe by year
(1450-1500) to see locations of the spread of printing, universities,
paper mills, fairs, and trade routes. Also includes material about
15th-century printing and an animated model of a printing press. From the
University of Iowa Libraries.
