Note:

Title supplied by cataloger (Zacour-Hirsch). Note on f. 1r gives the title Ricordi, along with Alamanno's name and the dates 1470-1488. This note appears to be in a later hand.

Script: Written in Gothic cursive and humanistic cursive scripts by various hands.
Watermarks: similar to Piccard XIV. ii. 536, but Piccard is much too early (Bologna, 1341).
Binding: Italian, late 15th-century vellum wrapper; "No 187" in ink on front. Writing on inside of vellum wrapper suggests that this might have been a document that was reused.
Vellum wrapper in poor condition; splitting, cracking and crumbling. Wrapper completely detached from book block. Binding very loose; all quires pulling loose. Some folios are splitting at the edges and show evidence of water damage.
Acquired, 1959.
