Interpretation of, Mandatorum Exitus, 1589, Lelio Buccapadulio
Camerari, a 1579 Italian limp tacketed ledger style binding.
Interpretation is based on a ledger created by the Canonici Sancti
Petri, the priests who celebrate in St. Peter’s. The "Camerarius
/ Camerlengus,” or administrator in this case was Lelio
Buccapadulio. The register records the payments, receipts, and
other information for the celebrations of the Cononici Sancti
Petri for the years 1587-1590.
Full limp vellum dos-a-dos binding; first textblock sewn on 3
alum-tawed leather thongs with secondary sewing onto 2 split leather
thongs; second textblock of individually sewn pamphlets in paper
wrappers with vellum spines; pamphlets sewn onto 2 slit leather
thongs; both textblocks secured into wrappers with vellum tackets;
leather ties at fore-edges held in place with tackets. 23 x 16.5
x 7 cm. Bound 2011.
In my interpretation of this binding I included vellum fragments
and leaves that show expenses and income for my own private binding
"business" that were printed in the Voglare typeface
designed by Stephen Farrell and based on a 1601 Florentine manuscript
written by an anonymous clerk.
Images of the creation process can be viewed here.
