WIM VAN ANROOIJ Jacob Bijndop († 1482) from Kampen on the invention of the art of printing* I INTRODUCTION In De annalibus quaedam nota, in the part written by Jacob Bijndop, town secre- tary of Kampen, (henceforth referred to for the sake of brevity as the chroni- cle), the following reference occurs for the year 1457 (Pl.
