More about the Condition

The size of the script is unusually large for the size of the leaf. This might suggest that the wrapper represents only 1/2 of the original leaf, and that a text column is missing. 

However, it is worth noting the sizeable space that has been left both at the top and the bottom of the leaf, as well as the overhead ruling of the first text-line, which suggest that the leaf may be complete. 

Current Condition

Extent 1 (partial?) leaf

More about the Current Condition

Mostly legible throughout; text on spine is partially obscured by 19th century labels.
