Book binding
Binding:
Parchment laced-case binding over pasteboard, sewn on four supports. Tail endband oversewn with green silk; head endband missing due to spine damage. Handwritten spine title and label. Warped. Binding dimensions: 285 × 210 × 30 mm. Condition: In good condition except for the top of the spine, where there is rodent damage; a rectangle of modern paper has restored a portion of the top margin of pp. 1–2, cut out (presumably in order to eliminate marks of ownership). The paper is stained in various places, e.g. at pp. 8–9, and the outer margin of pp. 17–105. pp. 179–189, are markedly stained by water damage. The first few lines at pp. 106–107 are stained in light brown. Some modern paper reinforcements in the fold of the first few quires.
Decoration
Unit 1. The scribe uses a dull reddish brown ink for his elaborate penflourished initials and numbers, as well as for enlarged dots used as dividers for the insertion of the addressee’s name.
Unit 2. No rubrication. Initials missing or added secondarily.
