RE: Wenzel's Bible...?



If you dig out my original mail on this subject from the archives (Mar 9
1998) I discuss a book that is a bit more like the VMS in the bathing
department but nothing exact.

The Wenzel manuscripts survived the war but I can't recall where there
are today.

Very interesting, thanks! Though it's a shame there aren't closer
parallels 
with the VMS. :-/

Does the book mention where the manuscripts currently are, or were the 
plates taken from pre-war photographs? It would be nice to know if a
copy 
is still in existence somewhere.
