de Turrecremata, Johannes Expositio super toto
[Basel: Johann Amerbach , not after 1482] Folio, 124 leaves in double column, 40 lines plus headline, gothic type, initial spaces, contemporary calf over wooden boards, last few leaves with a small area of dampstaining, a few blank leaves removed at beginning and at end, spine covering torn with slight loss at head and foot, pastedowns lifted [ISTC it00530000]
Provenance: "Sanctus Sixtus", early manuscript note on flyleaf; "I.W.", initials at head of first leaf Note: There is no catchplate on this volume, though there is the trace of a metal fixture in the centre of the lower cover, which may have been the pin for a long strap on the binding, rather than a clasp. Long strap bindings were common in romanesque bindings but were supplanted by straps with hooks and catchplates by the end of the fifteenth century.
