Local Notes:

Culture Class Collection copy is box 30, no. 9 in a collection of early modern German legal pamphlets and broadsides issued in Braunschweig or (later) the Napoleonic kingdom of Westphalia.

Culture Class Collection copy has below body of text the autograph of Karl I, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg.

Culture Class Collection copy has ms. numeral ("55.") and ms. inscription in head margin of leaf [A]1r; ms. note in tail outer corner of leaf [A]1r.

Culture Class Collection copy has on leaf [A]2v a faint round red seal of closure (presumably shellac), now broken into fragments, only 1 of which, along the outer edge, remains. Size: ca. 30 x 30 mm. Design and legend unidentifiable. A segment of paper is torn from the inner edge of the paper where the seal's 2nd fragment would have been.

Culture Class Collection copy has ms. inscription and accompanying flourishes on leaf [A]2v, all of which fits precisely into the rectangle formed by the document's fold lines as formed to fit the seal together, and which presumably accompanied the original sealing of the document.
