Those manuscript pages (like http://search.getty.edu/museum/records/musobject?objectid=305961 http://search.getty.edu/museum/records/musobject?objectid=30... and http://search.getty.edu/museum/records/musobject?objectid=4820 http://search.getty.edu/museum/records/musobject?objectid=48... and http://search.getty.edu/museum/records/musobject?objectid=5936 http://search.getty.edu/museum/records/musobject?objectid=59...) are some of the most beautiful pages I've ever seen. I wish I could read those letters, and old French.

Check the sample pages. This is a (very good) reproduction of the original, you can read about the history of it online/in Amazon reviews.
