[split] Could the manuscript be a copy of older documents?

David: that is actually an interesting line of thought. Damn it maybe I'll have to split this thread again soon

We all know what expensive medieval manuscripts look like.
We know what all-text manuscripts look like.
But what other manuscripts does the VM look like if we have to discount expensive ones and ones with few illustration? Keep in mind that the VM has a massive amount of space dedicated to drawings, both planty and nymphy.
