Was the Voynich manuscript unusual for the time?
#4
Another example is the small plants section. A handful of manuscripts do something vaguely similar for a page or two, but all in all it remains unique, especially if its extent is taken into account. 

The same goes for the Zodiac section. We may get a few flashes of recognition in other manuscripts, but it remains unique. 

I'll go out on a limb and hypothesise that even its impossible to understand marginalia are unusual. More often than not, marginalia can be understood much more readily than those of the VM.
