Würzburg Documents: Index by Number

It would appear that these documents were originally issued individually. Relatively near to the time of issue, it seems these documents were bound together chronologically in one or more books. Instead of numbering each page, however, each document was given one number, regardless of the number of pages it contained. Before the collection was received by the library here, most of the documents had been separated back into single issues. The numbering system used in the presumed book format has been retained here as the item number for each document. The numbers range from 250 to 497.

The documents appear in four basic sizes. The standard size is a half sheet of paper, 21 cm x 34 cm. (Sometimes this is a folded full sheet of paper.) Letters are used to indicate the other three sizes. A full sheet of paper, 42 cm x 34 cm, is indicated by a single letter o (ex. 409o). Those few documents that are larger than a full sheet are indicated by a double letter o (ex. 426oo). The letter m is used to designate those documents smaller than the standard half sheet, approx. one quarter page in size, 16.5 cm x 19.5 cm (ex. 366m). The one document marked with an h (461h) was originally a standard half sheet; it was folded in half at some point, split into two parts, and is now only a quarter page (missing the left half page).
