Incunabula: annotations index

Significant notes and/or textual annotations are indexed here. Many of the books contain brief bibliographical and ownership notes made by later owners (ie. 17th century onwards) - these are noted in the individual descriptions of the books but are not indexed here. Annotations that have been so washed out as to be illegible are mentioned in the individual records, but not indexed here.
