Advert Description
Are you interested in this item? This item is up for auction at Catawiki. Please click on "respond to advert" (orange button) to get redirected to the Catawiki website. Catawiki’s goal is to make special objects universally available. Our weekly auctions feature thousands of unusual, rare, and exceptional objects you won’t find in just any store. Original Gregorian chant sheet, probably written in Latin between the 16th and 17th centuries, with front and back. Most likely letterpress by Benedictine monks from southern Germany. Handmade paper made from old boiled down materials and wood casks, linen-like, high quality. Acquired when antiquarian bookshop K. Schubert was liquidated in 2013 in Mannheim, Germany. The sheets are absolutely original and come from an antiphonary which was in a very bad condition and only part of the total pages could be saved. 67558771
