Jean Jehannot
Printer in Paris, (1498-) 1517-1521

Imprimeur, libraire-juré (previously in partnership with the widow of Jean Trepperel).

Appointed one of the four grands libraires jurés on 30 January 1515 (1516 n.s.?).

The partnership with the widow of Jean Trepperel was still in being in August 1517 (Inventaire chronologique, 1517, no. 1524). Jehannot worked alone from 1517 until his death in late 1521.

His books are rarely dated and are usually signed only with his address. Two of the books listed here have quire numbers on the title page.

Address
‘A lenseigne Sainct Jehan Baptiste en la rue Neufve Nostre Dame pres Saincte Geneviefve des Ardans’ (at the sign of John the Baptist in the rue Neufve Nostre Dame near the church of Ste Geneviève des Ardans).
