Description
Summary:When in 1951 Walther Holtzmann brought to an end his survey of the English libraries which he had scoured for papal documents, he included the Phillipps collection at Cheltenham. His account was compiled on the basis of an eightday visit to the library nearly twenty years earlier. In printing it he observed that since 1932 many of the manuscripts had found their way into the British Museum, the Bodleian, and elsewhere. He therefore confined himself to describing thirty-five manuscripts which he had failed to trace to other libraries: he did not know whether they were still in the Phillipps collection or whether they had been sold. The fate of many of these manuscripts is now discoverable. Indeed, almost all which could possibly be of service in the search for papalia in England can be traced. It may be of help to users of Holtzmann's work to know their whereabouts.
