Summary:
Ledger of debtors and creditors left to the heirs of Arrigo Concini after his death, written between 1637 and 1638. The names of the heirs that appear on the cover page are Camilla Concini Medici, Leonora Concini Ricasoli, Ginevra Concini Orlandini, Maria Concini Giraldi and Ippolita Concini Capponi. The names of the counterparts that appear in the ledger are the Marquis Oratio Borboni (f. 2r), the city of Florence (f. 3r), Giovanni and Francesco Orlandini (f. 8r) and Piero di Domenico Lanfranchi (f. 9r). The present manuscript appears to be incomplete, with a large number of pages missing, as the index contains page numbers up to 101. Alphabetical index, with paper cover and 18 lettered tabs, containing names of individuals that appear in the ledger, is laid inside the upper cover of the manuscript.
