VMs: The curious quire hand mark on f57v...?

[Nick Pelling <incoming@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone,

While compiling a list of the quire marks a couple of days ago, I noticed 
once again the odd mark at the bottom on f57v, which would appear to be in 
the same slapdash hand as the quire marks (which I guess is John Dee's).

Has anyone made any tentative connections between this mark and any other 
sign (whether marginalia or not) in any of the books thought to have been 
in Dee's library?

Cheers, .....Nick Pelling.....

PS: cool post on Tolkien, BTW. :-)  I wouldn't be at all surprised if the 
VMS turned out to have been an inspiration for him. :-)
