08, Comparison Of Two Books Of Hours Printed By Thielman Kerver, Chase Shepard
Kerver Book of Hours: 2018 Senior Capstone
Portland State University Library Special Collections and the Mt. Angel Abbey Library both hold copies of books of hours printed by Thielman Kerver in Paris during the 1500s.

07, Kerver's Colophon, Quinn Haslett
Kerver Book of Hours: 2018 Senior Capstone
First established at the “the sign of the Unicorn,” Thielman Kerver’s Parisian shop was surrounded by other members of the printing community.

Kerver Book of Hours: 2018 Senior Capstone
While it is impossible to trace the specific journey of the 1507 Kerver Book of Hours, it is consistent with the historical record to conclude that it was produced for an international market, and quite plausibly, specifically for the Catalonian Spanish market. This essay summarizes the development of the book trade between France and Spain by 1600 and the importance of books of hours to that market.
