Bibliographic description
3v. . 32cm.. Binding: Vellum bound. Vol. I appears to be of earlier origin than the others, with early nineteenth-century manuscript on cover and two of the leaves, possibly in the hand of Sir John Trevelyan (1761-1846), who began to use the book for 'Notes relating to some of the Articles deposited in the Museum at Wallington'. This earlier volume has watermarked paper: LVG and ProPatria.
