Wikipedia description:
Heinrich Petri (Latin: Henricus Petri; 1508–1579), frequently misdeclined as "Henricus Petrus", and his son Sebastian Henric Petri (1546–1627) were influential early printers in Basel (Basilea). In addition to their own names, their printshop also used the Latin name Officina Henricpetrina. Among their best known works, both of 1566, the second edition of De revolutionibus orbium coelestium by Nicolaus Copernicus, first published in 1543 in Nuremberg by Johannes Petreius, and of Narratio Prima by Georg Joachim Rheticus, published in 1540 in Danzig (Gdańsk) by Franz Rhode. Also in 1566, Officina Henricpetrina published Petri Nonii Salaciensis Opera, the most important work by the Portuguese mathematician Pedro Nunes.
