Description
Summary:Among the parchment leaves which formed a large part of a purchase made by the late Professor Francis W. Kelsey early in 1927 I later found one of the missing leaves of the Freer Psalter, published in 1917. The bundle was made up of parchment and paper leaves, all, with this one exception, comparatively late and not of great value. Most of them are more or less damaged and have no connection with one another, evidently representing a variety of finds or purchases. They came from M. Nahman, an antiquity dealer of Cairo, and were bought by Mr. Kelsey without examination and on the chance that although the bundle looked like the rejected numbers from many sales, examination might reveal something of value.
