Material
Condition of document

These fragments are binding strips from an antiphoner. The shreds are heavily mutilated to fit the binding of the book it covered. Fragments 18 and 22 originally belonged to the same leaf.

Remarks

The book for which served this binding strip was identified as the work Stirpium historiae by the Flemish botanist Rembert Dodonaeus (1583). A second edition of this book was published in 1616 in Antwerp.
