Summary

A partial leaf from a 14th-century monastic Noted Breviary containing a text and chants and for the Feast of St Willibrord, Bishop of Utrecht (7 November). It was likely repurposed as a cover for one side of the binding of its host volume, from which it is now detached.

A sister leaf likely covered the other side of the host volume: Frauenfeld, Kantonsbibliothek Thurgau, 117/02. The spine of this volume is under this classmark.

Additional leaves from this manuscript were used to cover other incunabula in the collection of the Kartause Ittingen and remain in situ: Frauenfeld, Kantonsbibliothek Thurgau, X 637 and Frauenfeld, Kantonsbibliothek Thurgau, X 809
