Hi Alexander,

I did not save Martin's complete ms as there is very little stuff relevant to freaks like us contained. The codex is preserved in the Bavarian State Library Munich, cgm 598, but is, as I just checked, not available online at the moment.

Anyway, I sent you all the illustrations on guns etc. in there. Enjoy!

Best,
Michael

This would be a great adequate for what I am trying to do here and we all would greatly benefit from such contributions by German neighbors! :)

I live in the far provinces. I'm far from a museum. as I will next time in Polish museums to do photographic documentation.

Dear me :o
Must say i have forgotten such one, as i haven't missed it for sure.
Wait till you get my age; senile symptoms can not be avoided :eek: .
I have already substituted the screws picture for this more complete one.

'Nando, my dear friend,

As you know I'm not that far from your age and yet am experiencing those senile symptons at large. :D

Btw, let me know whenever you wish to receive any of my images; I mostly have hi-rez versions. :)

Best,
Michael

Very similar lock, sadly no provenance or current location (Cf post 3 in this thread)
