Halle, Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Sachsen-Anhalt, 78 L 1506 is a conv0lute of seven sixteenth-century prints, with two binding fragments. One of them is a Latin text on household managment, probably of French origin. The text preserved concerns the production of verjuice, the wine harvest, household linen, kitchen utensils, and the grooming of the palfrey. The tone and comments reveal a lord whose concern for thrift matches his suspicion of his workers. A provisional transcription provides access to the text.
