Bindings


Binding of reused vellum manuscript over pasteboard. Written on the vellum in black ink manuscript is a fifteenth-century liturgical text in double columns with paragraph markers supplied alternately in red and blue and capital strokes in red. The manuscript has been annotated in a different fifteenth-century hand. Layers of other printed and manuscript text can be seen beneath the outer cover of vellum. The spine has three slightly raised bands and at the head is a brown paper label. Two slots in each of the upper and lower covers suggest that they were once fastened together with ties or thongs. The leaf edges are sprinkled red. Size: 173 x 135mm. Leaf size: 169 x 128mm.

Provenance

Small black and white armorial bookplate of Sir Edward Allen Brotherton on the front pastedown. The book was most likely acquired before 17 June 1929 when Brotherton was created Baron Brotherton of Wakefield.
