Note in ECL card catalogue: The roll is from Oxford. It is dated by Gibson 1510 to 1520. Oldham (EBSB. FLa(3). No. 706) gives it as used alone from 1500 to 1521 and with two different "lattice-stamps" on books dated 1500 to 1517. He gives two examples with a panel-stamp. Ker gives examples of it used alone on books dated 1489 to 1523. He says it was probably first used between 1515 and 1520 (Ker p. 203). For another binding with this roll see Fg.3.12.
