    Description

    For your consideration is this group of large vellum illuminated manuscripts. I believe they are in Latin and contain biblical excerpts from Psalms, Matthew and one references "The Book of Wisdom" with a reference to Solomon. Two are separate double sided pages and two others are still joined at the spine but still double sided. Each one includes hand written notes from the estate identifying their contents. Highlights from these notes, dimensions, condition and photo key are as follows:
    Manuscript 1) First 4 photos. Psalm 44, vs 17-18, 27 x 18 1/2" double sided. Some soiling, wrinkles, a couple small edge tears and possible some touch ups.
    Manuscript 2) Next 2 photos. Note reads, Matt. 10:27 as well as Solomon's Book of Wisdom, 3:7, 26 1/2 x 19 3/4". Some soiling, wrinkles and minor edge wear.
    Manuscript 3) Remaining 5 photos. Psalm 58, vs. 17-18. 32 1/2 x 21 1/2". These are 2 double sided manuscripts still joined at the spine. Some soiling, uneven edges and curled corners.
    These all are what I would call very nicely preserved and still present themselves quite well. I can't guarantee the accuracy of the notes as this is the way they came out of the estate. Please study the photos and ask any questions you may have. Quoted shipping is to the lower 48 states and includes insurance. They will ship flat in an art quality box, not rolled. Thanks.
