Fifteenth-century humanistic-hand manuscript of Albert the Great's Liber mineralium (Books I and II and one page of Book III), on stones and metals; the catalogue notes the work was first printed at Padua in 1476. Unique manuscript: a handwritten codex held in the Wellcome Library's Western Manuscripts collection, so no second copy of this particular text-witness exists. Digitized by the Wellcome Collection and released under its Public Domain Mark.
