A partial leaf from a 14th-century monastic Noted Breviary, containing text and chants for De Job (6 May). Repurposed as a wrapper for the incunabulum X 809, an edition of Gerardus de Zutphania's De spiritualibus ascensionibus from 1488-93.
Additional leaves from this manuscript were used to cover other incunabula in the collection of the Kartause Ittingen. One other is still in situ: Frauenfeld, Kantonsbibliothek Thurgau, X 637. Another two have been detached and are now preserved individually: Frauenfeld, Kantonsbibliothek Thurgau, FRG 200 and Frauenfeld, Kantonsbibliothek Thurgau, ALT FRG 117/02.
