[Linda]

These are narrow strips to support the binding. There are several of them throughout the MS.

I believe, from memory, that they are also parchment.

If they were dated, we might know when this binding was done.
That sounds interesting, but really won't help us a lot, and these tests are expensive.

Has anyone contacted theses people? It sounds like it would be mutually beneficial, which might mitigate the expense?
