The catalogue describes the incunabula preserved in three Ticino Capuchin convents (located in Bigorio, Orselina and Faido) and in the former convent library Salita dei Frati in Lugano. The analysis of ancient inventories and the study of the provenances noted in the volumes shed some light on how these collections originated. The catalogue also includes the first inventory and description of some fragments of incunabula used in the bindings of ancient volumes.
