Reports addressed to the Trustees of the British Museum on the Age of the Manuscript
The report is on an illuminated manuscript over which there had been some controversy as to its age. The Trustees of the British Museum had asked for a report from several distinguished scholars to resolve the matter. This copy had been in the University of Bristol's library at one time as evidenced by the bookplate and library markings. Very worn, disbound. pages are clean and easily read.

MONUMENTA PALAEOGRAPHICA VINDOBONENSIA
by Karabacek, Josef Ritter
Written in German. Edited by Rudolf Beer. Two parts bound separately. A Memorial of the Art of Writing from the Manuscript Collection of the "Habsburg-Lothringischen Erzhauses". Part One contains plates of facsimiles of fragments of Hilarius Pictaviensis "De Trinitate" and a tract, "Contra Arianos", as well as plates of the Golden Psalter of King Charlemagne. Part Two contains plates of facsimiles of "Bobbienser Mischhandschrift: Patristische und grammatische Schriften, zum Teil auf reskribierten Blättern mit klassischen, biblischen und apokryphen Texten" as well as the Sacraments of Pope Gregory I, or Gregory the Great. The text explains and expounds upon these manuscripts. Part One has the text bound regularly, whereas the text of Part Two is comprised of 10 loose sets of folio sheets folded into quarters, therefore being split into 8 pages per section. Part One: Lightly soiled, corners and spine head lightly bumped, small tear at spine foot and small rubbed areas along left side of spine, cracks and tears in the folds of the portfolio. Part Two: Corners bumped, edges slightly dented, small tear at the foot of the right side of spine, large tear throughout left side of spine, light soiling, cracks and tears in the folds of the portfolio, soiling on inside of spine cloth.
