i + 39 + i folios
10cm × 29,5cm
Modern foliation in the lower margin of the verso side. The foliation skips one leaf between 21 and 22 and so the foliation is one number too low from fol. 21 onwards.

Since some of the folia have been conserved during the rebinding, it is difficult to establish a certain collation. The flyleaves are modern and have been added with the rebinding.
The manuscript is in good overall condition. There has been some damage to the edges of the leaves, but these have been conserved. Some fraying along the edges is still visible.
One unruled column, varying number of lines.
Two main hands (according to Oja) writing a cursive of
saec. XVI
. The hands most likely belong to scribes working for
Erik Fleming
.
No decoration.
Modern binding from the
first half of saec. XX
. On the spine the shelf-mark of the manuscript is found along with the headline ‘Erik Flemings jordebok 1530–40 talen’.
The manuscript contains an undated inventory of taxes levied from
Erik Fleming
’s estates. Probably at least one leaf is missing from the beginning. Judging by the similarities with this inventory and the ones surviving from 1541 and 1545 (in
Finland, National Archives, Erik Fleming’s land records 1442–1551
) it can be judged that this inventory was written during the 1540s (
between 1541 and 1548
).
Unlike the manuscript kept at the Finnish National Archives, this one is arranged more like a typical account book. There are no corrections or additions, which suggests it is a fair copy. This manuscript might well have been used in the actual account-keeping, whereas the manuscript preserved in Finland’s National Archives was perhaps more of a copy-book.
The manuscript belonged to
Nils Reinhold Brocman
, who was an enthusiastic book-collector and was Librarian of the National Library, 1763–1770. Brocman accompanied
Jacob Langebek
on his trip around the Baltic Sea in
1753–1754
. The manuscript may have been acquired during that time.
The manuscript came to the
National Library of Sweden
through
Nils Reinhold Brocman
.
