Preserved as an album. The 1830 catalogue gave a total of 20 leaves of which 19 are now extant. The missing leaf (4) is described in the 1830 catalogue as 'taken out'. All the leaves have specimens of Persian calligraphy, and in most cases clearly derive from the same albums as the Persian items in Album 28. Rebound in modern red leather in 1969.
