Chancery folio (264 x 187mm). Fragment only: 160 (of 193) leaves. 29 lines. Type: 2:138G. Initials supplied in red, paragraph marks and capital strokes in red. (Lacking 33 leaves including 1/1 containing the full-page woodcut of Pope Gregory and Peter the Deacon on 1/1v, one leaf with lower half of text cut away, another few with section of margins clipped or repaired, some leaves apparently misbound, occasional soiling or smudging.)  Modern vellum with boards covered in vellum reused from a manuscript antiphonal leaf.

A rare vernacular text; the accompanying texts when present are particularly interesting, as they include Tundal's Vision, Ars moriendi, Speculum mundi, Die vier letzten Dinge, all in German. Only a few books were printed at this monastery between 1474 and 1476. According to the bookseller’s note on front flyleaf, this fragment includes 138 leaves of the Dialogi, complete, but lacking the first leaf with woodcut, and includes 22 leaves from Tundal’s Vision.
