Today's #FragmentFriday fragment is gone. Who can identify the missing text? (Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf, RR-2-431:INK) #fragmentology

Have you ever seen this? An ultrarare manuscript bound in printed material! 🙃I think the cover is a 16th century Missale and the manuscript 18th C. It is in a very rough state but it is new to my collection! #fragmentFriday #bookhistory
A gracious #fragmentfriday to you. Here we have a (insert collective noun) of graduals. Is it a mass of graduals? I apparently wasn’t paying attention the day that was taught…
One for #FragmentFriday - a binding fragment tucked into a 1566 Plantin Lucretius (searchworks.stanford.edu/view/10094208)
for all those times you need to reference 'when are you supposed to sing that hymn that goes (🎶🎶)' #FragmentFriday
Lovely fragment of ?eighteenth-century German devotional printing from Cambridge UL Special Collections. Not sure what the significance of Christ holding balloons of his own face is, but it’s quaint nonetheless. #FragmentFriday
Our last #earlyprintedbook for #FragmentFriday is this small medical volume bound in #manuscript 'waste' over pasteboard 📚

For #FragmentFriday , a wee preview of something I'm working on, although it would also work for #BindingWasteWednesday !
For the last #FragmentFriday of 2022, just an impression of the books with recycled parchment covers (both written and printed) in my collection. #bookhistory #fragmentology
A couple chants for #FragmentFriday – feast of Augustine, 28 Aug.
“Inventus igitur” (Cantus ID 202633)
“Verbum dei usque” (602427 & 602427a)
At UIUC RBML, 875.1 J15e1503
A #FragmentFriday mystery (to me, at least). I can make out amounts (e.g., 'xxd') so a ledger(?), but having difficulty with text. I believe I see 'dono' and other such terms, so perhaps listing gifts or receipt of funds? Script appears English in origin. Ideas? #fragmentology
I mostly ignore chant (sorry!), but these initials are so extravagant that one could almost call them wacky! (Bibliothèque de Genève, BGE Cta 1644 BGE Gg 225) #fragmentology

Another fascinating find: this 18th century book contains several parchment strips reinforcing its spine. The upper fragment shows us a 16th century gothica cursiva currens (possibly a remnant of a legal document). But can anyone tell us what language it is? #FragmentFriday
