The catalog I purchased regarding the Voynich bookshop in Florence is something else entirely. It has nothing to do with the manuscript's history, which began in 1912, but it is important for understanding W.M. Voynich as an antiquarian bookseller.(16-09-2017, 10:03 PM)Fabrizio Salani wrote: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.I have aquired another piece of the Voynich puzzle (not with this parchment) in 2015 from an antiquarian bookseller in Florence, the 1908 catalogue of W. M. Voynich of his library in Florence. Thank to this book catalogue there is a connection between father J. Strickland and Voynich, we must think that the priest have contacted the book seller because it owned a famous library in Italy (ex Franceschini library in Florence).
Im confused. It was said that this book catalogue was acquired seperately from the copy page parchment, but it is an exact match with the back of the copy. Every line, crease, and mark is the same. I've roughly morphed the booklet from the laying down position, and you can see that it's the same piece of paper.

I very much appreciate the high resolution scans of both sides of the copy, and really appreciate the measurement tools being added!
Over the past 13 years, I have acquired other original documents about W.M. Voynich and the manuscript. I am publishing the catalog's cover image.
