Could you elaborate? I see no reason why it couldn't have stayed with the original creators throughout their lifetime.
Sorry, by "with the original creators" I meant with whatever group or family they were a part of. With how expensive the parchment was and how formal and well-made the manuscript was, it seems like it was meant to last or be used for more than just their lifetime.

Well we can at least consider it likely that whoever sold it to Rudolf had no idea if it was a forgery, and wasn't intentionally conning him if it was. I can't speak as to his taste in book dealers, though.
