Well, knowing the Spaniards that could very well be an original page... we're lucky they didn't take them down to the bar with them for a coffee! 
But the caption on the original photo says it's taken in Spain, so they're all copies.
Pablo from Siloé told me that the pages will be exactly replicated, down to artificially introduced imperfection in the vellum (which I understand to mean reproduction of cuts and tears). I wonder what they use the string for?
The next time I'm in northern Spain I shall have to blag a guided visit around their workshop and do a write-up for the forum.
Of course, with an examination of this level, we should soon have our final answers over the question of letters hidden under the paint, etc.
