General Description

IMAGE AND INVENTORY UPDATE IN PROGRESS

Fragments from an early-16th-century partbook that appear to have served as lining for a round letter box (no longer with the documents) in which other documents with seals were kept: two circles (one cut across the gutter of an opening), one long upright strip and two horizontal strips of bifolia, cut right across the width of the book plus one very small fragment.
