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
One for #FragmentFriday - a binding fragment tucked into a 1566 Plantin Lucretius (searchworks.stanford.edu/view/10094208)
Binder's waste (Manuale curatoru[m] predicandi prebens modu[m] , Basel 1506) by Johann Ulrich Surgant) in a post incunabula (Sermones fratris Gabrielis Barelete, Hagenau 1514).
One of my oldest books, with beautiful 16th century owner marks!

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 #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
This #FragmentFriday , a couple of privately-held Book of Hours leaves that I came across in the house my parents are buying in Virginia...they feature portions of Psalms 37 and 101, respectively (two of the 'Penitential Psalms').
