Myth. The Mazarin (AKA Gutenberg) Bible was in Latin in a Gothic typeface.
The first Bible translated into English was begun by John Wycliffe and
completed by John Purcey in 1388, 60 to 70 years before Gutenberg's. The
Church authorized the translation (Douay-Rheims) of the Bible into English
in the late 16th Century.
