Answer 1

The first Book printed by Gutenberg was the Bible.

The three unique features of the Bible were:

1.The Bible for the first printed book in Europe. Gutenberg printed about 180 copies of it in the first stage. The text was printed in new Gutenberg press with metal type but the borders were carefully designed ,painted and illuminated by skilled artists. No two copies were similar.

2. Every page of each copy was different. Even when two copies looks similar a castle comparison review differences.

3.In Text colour was used within the letters at various places. This had two functions: it added colour to the page, it highlighted all the holy words to emphasize their significance. The colour on every page of the text was added by hand. Gutenberg printed the text in black, leaving spaces where the colour could be filled in later.
