Host Volume

Remarks

Host volume unknown. Probably functioned as a cover. Fol. 1v contains a 17th-century note in Dutch : "Desen boeck hoordt toe [...](h)of". This inscription probably indicates a similar provenance as: Antwerp, Rijksarchief te Antwerpen, Verzameling Losse Aanwinsten, nr. 2.38-2.39.
