While this Bible with its clasps and cover bosses must certainly have been an impressive folio, this fragment is actually more interesting for what it reveals in the process of dis-binding. Bookbinders used so-called 'waste paper' or even parchment strips of discarded manuscript music for spine pastedowns and underneath cover boards to provide a smooth surface for leather, endpapers, and blind or gold tooling. This one has a beautifully rendered image printed in sepia with a contemporary caption.
