Titles printed or copied from early time to the Qianlong 乾隆 reign (1736-1795) of Qing dynasty (1644-1911) are usually considered as fine editions 善本. The earliest Chinese rare book at USC was dated to 1515, which corresponds to the last years of Zhengde 正德 reign (1506-1521) of Ming dynasty (1368-1644).
