<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ex Libris, post: 9438668, member: 14916&quot;]Cool, thank you for your interesting story! As I said in the other topic, the recycling of parchment/vellum was quite common in the early modern period. Sometimes older books were cut up (manuscripts were out of fashion after the invention of the letterpress printing). In your case the manuscript is not from a book, but from a legal document, written in French. Can you make a photo of the inside of the binding? Here you can see if the vellum was a part of the original binding. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]438137[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
