- User Conditions:
- Physical Characteristics:
- Made up of 5 pieces of paper each about 340 mm long, the first is seriously damaged. The roll has been backed with stout paper for the whole of its length, extending for an additional 250 mm at each end. This greatly obscures the w/m, but the letters ЯМСЯ can still be made out. Layout: there are two margins, giving an area 145 mm in width for writing, but the scribe does not always keep strictly within. Ink: black; red for propisi. Hand: a late skoropis' (cursive).
