Horčický's books

[Jorge_Stolfi]

Here what I read and understand for the ex-libris of Jacobus Sinapius.
** Jacobj à Tepenecz - N°4
** Jacobj à Tepenecz - N°19
both ex-libris are written with the same hand.

More than that: they are identical except for the number.

the name & number are, for each, written with the same pen and the same ink.

I don't see how you can say that for #19.  Maybe the pen can be said to be similar, but the ink has been so altered by erasure and chemicals that it is impossible to tell.

Jakuba z Tepeneze - N°40
we don't clearly see if the N has a double-stroke.

  

That is definitely not an "N" but an "H".  Since the name is in Czech, the "H" must be an abbreviation of some Czech word.  Do we have any Czech speakers in the audience?

the person seems to be here Jacobus Sinapius himself

Indeed it matches the signature "manu propria" shown in René's page, including the peculiar x-like "p".

I think in the whole collection of Jacobus Sinapius, there was at least 2 or 3 ordered sub-collections and this should explain why the books noted in 1602 and the "Voynich collection" have unordered (between) them chronological numbers.

Allright, but there are other explanations...

All the best, --stolfi
