["GC" <glenclaston@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dennis,

This volvelle (printed in cut-out form with moving parts) can be found at
http://gallica.bnf.fr/

The reference is (1561)

  Sphaera Joannis de Sacro Bosco emendata / Eliae Vineti Santonis scholia in
eandem sphaeram, ab ipso authore restituta. [adjunximus huic libro]
Compendium in sphaeram / per Pierium Valerianum Bellunensem. [et] Petri
Nonii Salaciensis demonstrationem [eorum], quae in extremo capite de
climatibus Sacroboscius scribit de inaequali climatum latitudine / eodem
Vineto interprete

It's very near the end of the book.
