It looks as if it has been slightly enlarged. The measurements of the ms. itself are 24cms x 16.5 cms. - oblong I am mystified as to why it should be so dark. My recollection of the British Library's ms. of Passacalles y obras is that the paper is off white and the text clearly legible in brownish ink but perhaps this ms. is not so well preserved.
The introduction is in English (only) but I haven't read it yet. It only arrived this morning. cheers Monica ----- Original Message ----- From: [1]Azalais To: [2]Monica Hall Cc: [3]Vihuelalist Sent: Saturday, October 30, 2010 2:35 PM Subject: Re: [VIHUELA] Santiago de Murcia Thank you for the information Monica! Here is a link to the A-R Publications page: [4]https://www.areditions.com/rr/rrb/b167.html Could you tell us if the facsimile pages are at least printed at full size? Look forward to reading your review!

It is in two volumes published by A-R Editions. I don't know the price - I am lucky enough to have been sent a review copy. The facsimile is very dark - the background paper is grey and the tablature only a slightly darker shade of grey so it is difficult to read.
