Prague was not imperial city of Holy Roman Empire. Imperial city was used from the fifteenth century to denote a self-ruling city that had a certain amount of autonomy and was represented in the imperial diet. Prague, a capital of the Kingdom of Bohemia, was not among them, viz https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Free_imperial_city.

[edit]I replaced the heading image with a lithograph since I thought it was more appropriate. Saving the old image here... Eliot 03:09, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Spelling of first name
[edit]There appears to be confusion over the spelling of his name:
- "A History of Graphic Design," 1998 by Philip B. Meggs lists his name as "Aloys"
- "Typographic Design: Form and Communication," 2002 by Rob Carter, Ben Day and Philip Meggs lists his name as "Aloys"
- The article itself says he was born "Aloys"
What evidence is there that he actually went by "Alois?" --Parhamr 04:54, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Anecdote about the discovery of the stone's capability
[edit]The 1911 Britannica article contains a charming anecdote about his realization that the stone could be easily used for etching: it's to do with his mother and a washerwoman's bill. I'm not sure that even its inclusion in Britannica validates its authenticity, so that's why I included only a poster reference to the article. David Brooks (talk) 17:32, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
