In the 15th century, Johannes Gutenberg invented printing from movable, reproducible type, a development that transformed the face of printing and enabled the creation of his famed Bible, which is one of the earliest mass-produced books in human history.
Only 49 copies of the Gutenberg Bible survive today, one of which is housed in The Huntington's Library collections.
