Notes:
|
16 lines. Medical self-help book. On the right part of Chapter One on nutrition. Under the title in black ink a text by a different hand, which is probably the same as the one who vocalised the text and wrote the marginal notes. Could this be an inscription of ownership? Vocalisation signs in a darker ink. Text partially faded. Marginal notes.
