Remarks

Both leaves were used as pastedowns for a register of the assizes of beer in the city of Antwerp kept between 1 August 1557 until 31 October of the same year ('Assijs boeck vander binnen bier assijse beginnende P[rima] augusti anno xv c lviij ende eijndende vltima october daer nae'). This particular register was kept by controller Johannes Maechs.

The upper margin of fol. [1]r contains several inscriptions that were added when Maechs maintained the register: 'Joos Maechs contrerolleur opte binnen bier assise', while the lower margin of the same leaf contains the inscriptions: 'Joos Maechs 1557' and 'Philippus par la grace de Dieu roy de France et d'Angleterre'.

Maechs has written down his name on several fragments that are part of the FelixArchief's manuscript collection.
