C13th fragment of ‘Catholicon’ – John of Genoa (Balbus)

Single leaf 272mm x 180mm with just the top line(s) shaved. Balbus (or John of Genoa), ‘Catholicon’, or a text which follows it very closely, Italy or southern France, fourteenth century. Recovered from a binding, the front is clear, the reverse less so and is dusty and browned. A couple of rubricated red initials. A very good example.
