[QUOTE="Ex Libris, post: 9433225, member: 14916"]There is some information left about one of the recycled bindings. It once belonged to a monestary in de 1540’s and contained sermons. It contains the word Maillardi that could lead to Olivier Maillard. I found one of his books “Sermones” with a familiar woodcut! Maybe a coincidence.

Old German is very hard to read. Furter there is modern pencil writing that shows the German word “fehlen” (missing). So the original book was probably incomplete before the binding was recycled.
