Very interesting story related to history of printing ====================================== A 1971 cheque from Cambridge University Press instructing Barclay's Bank to repay to the University the debt owed by 16th century printer John Siberch. John Siberch: Cambridge’s first printer (and record debtor?) 2021 is the 500th anniversary of the first works printed in Cambridge Five hundred years ago, John Siberch, the son of a German wool merchant, borrowed £20 from Cambridge University and set up the first printing press in the city. He stayed in Cambridge only a short while before returning to Germany and dying, as far as records suggest, without ever repaying his debt. Adjusting for a compound interest rate of 5% over the intervening five centuries, the debt would today stand in the hundreds of billions Fortunately for any descendants, the original sum was repaid and interest waived by the University in 1971, on the 450th anniversary of Cambridge’s first publication. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hr-mohan_very-interesting-story-related-to-h… https://lnkd.in/g4_pKr4M With regards HR Mohan -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
