Summary

One leaf of a late medieval antiphoner used as a loose wrapper for three early modern music books (F-yx44, F-cd14, and F-l2yf), which are bound individually in fragments of a different liturgical manuscript The fragment contains mostly psalm antiphons and responsories.

The shape and lacing holes indicate that the wrapper was originally the case of the binding of a different item in the Herlufsholm collection. It was removed from Herlufsholm 29.4, a copy of Samuel Huber's Antibellarminus (Goslar, 1607), which can be gleaned from a faint handwritten title that reads ANTIBELLARM. D. SAMUELI HUBERI on the part of the leaf that would have been glued to the spine of the original host volume. Traces of the offset, a blue D initial in particular, are visible on the now naked back cover of Herlufsholm 29.4.
