The foliation was introduced by D'Imperio, and 
she used consistently: f85/86r1, f85/86v3 etc
for all twelve panels (although the six ones
making up the rosettes image are rarely mentioned
explicitly). On my web site I have preferred to
use f85 for anything left of the binding,
and f86 for the remainder.

This part of my web site is currently under 
reconstruction. It is possible that the description
is incorrect or incomplete.

That sounds like the correct one.

Yes, at GC's site. Go to:
http://www.voynichinfo.com/  to the bottom of 
the page an click on 'Miscellaneous'.

I have some further information and some questions
on the 'vellum' used in the MS, which will follow
once I have gathered it.
