NoteA few pencil notes by Gennadius (accession number, shelfmark, bibliographical information etc) on recto of front endpaper and recto of first flyleaf. Four cut-outs from booksellers/auctioneers's catalogues, two (endpaper) presumably added by Gennadius, possibly relating to the same or to other copies, the other two (first flyleaf) appear to be slightly earlier. Another cut-own inserted in the book, plus two leaves, apparently cut out from a later (19th c?) edition of Marullus's poems. Gennadius's bookplate is upside-down on the back pastedown.
