Copy
Wanting the blank leaf [a1].
Sheets [g2.7] and [g3.6] have changed places in binding.
Binding: Nineteenth-century blind-tooled calf, bound for the Bodleian Library, with the gold stamp of the Library on both covers. Marbled pastedowns and azure silk bookmark.
Size: 290 × 210 × 21 mm.
Size of leaf: 282 × 195 mm.
A few very faded marginal notes, mainly extracting key words, in an early hand.
Initials are supplied in red on the first two leaves only.
Provenance: Payne and Foss Catalogue (1830), no. 70, rather than Antoine Augustin Renouard's sale (1830), lots 187-8, which call for an illuminated first page in the De cardinalatu.
Purchased for £3. 13. 6; see Books Purchased (1830), 1 where the book is described as De pontificatu.
In the Bodleian copy of the Renouard sale catalogue both 187 and 188 are marked; possibly the Library had wanted both, but was outbid.
Payne and Foss supplied the De cardinalatu from stock.
Former Bodleian shelfmark: Auct. 2Q inf. 2.21.
