A beautiful original manuscript leaf on fine vellum, written ca. 1470 in brown textura, heightened in red and embellished with color initials.

This authentic, hand-written vellum leaf has thirty four lines of religious text that are ruled in a faint brown ink, written in brown and red ink in a handsome gothic bookhand with five, two line high initials in alternating red and blue ink. The vellum leaf is in good condition although there are traces of aging including, soiling, wrinkling, stains and modern pencil foliation.
