The handwriting shows great similarity to that of the Cistercian Abbot of Aldersbach, Wolfgang Mayer (1469-1544)., From the collection of Bernard M. Rosenthal. Monogram (ms.) of Otto Hupp, Munich, on front paste-down., Imprint from colophon., Signatures: a-s⁸/⁴., The fifth Latin ed., with the woodcuts ascribed to the Young Dürer and his companions., and The text is not a Latin translation of Brant's Narrenschiff, but is the Latin addendum to the Narrenschiff prepared by Josse Badius.
