Features

Bindings


Late fifteenth- or early sixteenth-century binding of half pigskin over wooden boards. The pigskin, where it overlaps onto the upper and lower boards, is blind-tooled with a repeating pattern of stylised foliage between double fillets. The spine has four raised bands. Written in black ink manuscript on paper lettering pieces in the first and second panels are the names of the seven works bound together in this volume. At the top of the upper board there is writing in an early hand in black ink manuscript over which has been affixed a paper lettering piece with the titles of the seven works bound together in this volume written on it in black ink manuscript. Fragments of metal and leather on the lower board and nails on the upper board indicate that the book was fastened with two clasps, the catch on the upper board. Watermark on the back pastedown of a crown or mitre surmounted by a cross. There is damage to the head of the spine revealing the endband and the upper board and spine have
suffered worm damage. Size: 442 x 300mm. Leaf size: 427 x 285mm.
