Rebound in half morocco; a few leaves slightly wormed. Written in the lower margin of the title-page in an early hand is:
This seems to be the book of Entries to which Townsend in his Tables refers and of which he says he never saw any but his
own
. The few manuscript notes are not by Jefferson.
This copy has been included in the Jefferson collection for some time. It is not initialled by him, and other marks of provenance
if any have been lost in the rebinding.
The first edition of the
Intrationum liber was printed by Pynson in 1510.
