THREE COPIES OF THE WORLD-RENOWNED GUTENBERG BIBLE TO BE DISPLAYED TOGETHER AT THE MORGAN LIBRARY & MUSEUM

Press release date: 
Monday, March 31, 2008

For the first time in more than a decade, The Morgan Library & Museum presents all three of its Gutenberg Bibles, the largest number of copies in any single collection. Three Gutenberg Bibles allows visitors to see important differences in copies of the first substantial printed book in the Western world, an epoch-making technological innovation, yet also a highpoint in the art of graphic design. The exhibition is on view from May 20 through September 28, 2008, in the Morgan’s Clare Eddy Thaw Gallery.
