Remarks

Fragment was used as a cover for a register of the assizes of beer in the city of Antwerp kept between 1563 and 1564. The strip was pasted to the leaf to fit the size of the paper.

A modern paper slip with the note '1563-64-1' is attached to the leaves with a string, referring to this origin.
