43r
-
65v
) 72 lines to the page. Written space on the page: 225-150mm.
Hand Description:
At least three hands. In part I a round, gothic minuscule, maybe Italian. In part II at least two very delicate hands.
Binding Description:
Beige half leather binding (contemporary). Edges beveled. Paper sign at the top with a table of contents (Tractatus Iohannis de Sancto Amando super antidotarium Nicolai, 1 ... Item medicine Zenonis .64.), probably contemporary; then in ink the information p.83 n.23, which does not seem to refer to Reiser. Underneath another paper sign (50 x 40mm), on it two intertwined D's in red ink, underneath the number 6 (old signature: DD 6?). Traces of a clasp and a chain eyelet at the back.
Acquisition:
Probably written in Italy. Price indication inside front: Pro tribus florenis. — Neither to be found in EHINGER nor in REISER, unless one accepts the designation Jatro-mathematica, Reiser p.83 no.23. The type of chain attachment on the back cover indicates early possession of the Stadtbibliothek Augsburg.
