Hi John, Steve and all

 

About missing:

 

Here is an excerpt of page 304 of the catalogue of medieval and renaissance manuscripts Beinecke library Yale vol.II (Mss 251-500) written by Barbara Shailor (MRTS, new York, 1987), about MS 408:

 

"Parchment. ff. 102 (foliation, s. xvi, Arabic numerals; not every leaf foliated) + i (paper), including 5 double-folio, 3 triple-folio, 1 quadruple-folio and 1 sextuple-folio folding leaves. 225x160mm."

 

"Collation is difficult, due to the number of fold-out leaves that are not always foliated consistently. I-VII8 (f.12 missing), VIII4 (leaves foliated 59 through 64 missing from center of quire), IX2 (double and triple fold-out leaves), X2 (1 triple fold-out), XI2 ( 1 quadruple fold-out), XII2 (f.74 missing, followed by stubs of conjugate leaves), XIII10, XIV1 (sextuple fold-out), XV4 ( 1 triple and 1 double fold-out), XV4

( 1 triple and 1 double fold-out), XVI4 ( 1 double fold-out; ff.91,92,97,98 missing, 2 stubs between 94 and 95), XVII4 ( 2 double fold-outs, XVIII12 (ff. 109-110, central bifolium, missing)."
