60a
Catchwords in the lower margin of the last page of a quire.
At least one quire is missing from both the front and back of the manuscript. A leaf is almost completely excised after fol. 3. A leaf excised after fol. 25 (no textual loss). Fol. 41 is smaller and of a different shape, but the scribe adapted the text accordingly. Fol. 60 is probably a later addition. Fol. 60a is almost entirely cropped.
The writing is badly worn, especially at the beginning and end of the surviving volume. There is some staining throughout, and on some occasions the ink of the decoration has seeped through.
Two columns with 25 lines; vertical bounding lines in ink.
One hand of
saec. XV
writing a simple hybrida script.
The hand of an annotator contributed some original notes in the margins.
On fol. , a picture of Christ on the cross. This leaf is a later addition, bound in between quires. Alternating red and green lombardic initials and also paraphs. Article numbers and headings are given in red.
Girdle-book binding with wooden boards and brown leather covers. Two hook-clasps. Five copper bosses on both the front and back covers.
The manuscript contains an imperfect copy of
Magnus Eriksson
's
Stadslag
. It was written by a single scribe, during
(the first half of) saec. XV
. Since the manuscript shares certain similarities with a number of manuscripts of Finnish origin (
Wiktorsson 1992, 35–38
), it may have been written in
Finland
.
Several leaves show the stamp of
Tallinn City Archives
. How and when the manuscript ended up in
Tallinn
is uncertain.
