There are several prints of grimoires or magical texts attributed to Faust. Some of them are artificially dated to his lifetime, either to "1540", or to "1501", "1510", etc., some even to unreasonably early dates, such as "1405" and "1469".
Several versions of mystical books or spellbooks are claimed to be written by Faust. Some of these have been deliberately dated to his lifetime, either to "1540", or to "1501", "1510", etc., some even to implausibly early dates, such as "1405" and "1469".
