Description
‡ Leaf from the Ordinary of a Missal, in Latin, manuscript on parchment [Germany, c. 1500]
Single leaf, with double column of 14 lines of a notably large and formal bookhand, capitals touched in red, early folio no. '201', a few small spots and stains, edges darkened, else excellent condition, 349 by 230mm.
This appealing script, with its monumentality and profusion of decorative hairline penstrokes, stands at the crossroads between manuscript and the earliest years of commercially viable printing.
‡: A double dagger (‡) indicates that the lot is being sold whilst subject to temporary importation and that VAT is due at the reduced rate (5%) if the lot remains in the UK.
