Here is the scan of the ViP CE vol. 1 p. 16 which might be of some interest to the list.

> Dear James,
> the Baroda Critical edition of the ViP (The Critical Edition of the Viṣṇupurāṇam, ed. M. M. Pathak, 2 vols, Vadodara: Oriental Institute, 1997-1999) lists several commentaries (and their editions) under "Testimonia", vol. 1, p. 16 (I can scan this page tomorrow).
> I think that the earliest one is by Śrīdhāra, publ. in the 1907 Veṅkaṭeśvara Steam Press ed. (reprinted, e.g. Nag Publishers) of the ViP (on the date of this commentator, see P.K. Gode, Studies in Indian Literary History, vol. 2, 1954, p. 169 sq. "between c. A.D. 1350 and 1450":     http://archive.org/details/StudiesInIndianLiteraryHistoryVolume2 ).

> Should anyone have any texts of these commentaries (or references for them, if printed editions exist), I would also be grateful.
