Looking At The Gutenberg Bible
The British Library has a function which allows you to compare their two versions of the Gutenberg Bible.
You can choose a book of the Bible and look at the differences between the paper version and the vellum edition.
I looked at Jerome's Epistle to Paulinus and saw how much plainer the paper version was; I hadn't realised there would be such a difference.
You can also read the introductory information about the Gutenberg Bible and more information about Gutenberg, printing texts, and other relevant topics.

Thanks! I spend waay too much time browsing instead of doing something useful (cooking, cleaning . . . )
