General
Fragments were part of the same bifolium and fit together; besides, fragment VIIIB20/169b (and possibly VIIIB20/169a as well) was also part of this bifoliuml.
Provenance
This bifolium was used as a binder for account registers. Afterwards, the bifolium was trimmed into smaller fragments; these fragments were then used in account registers for the years 1570-1571 by Johannes van Harelbeke, provisor of Parc Abbey.
