- Housed in a modern mat frame with dealer's prospectus on back., Fifteenth-century, Italian bull (literae de gratia) of Pope Sixtus IV (1414-1484) addressed to the clergy of Bonilla Spain. Document refers to benefices recently granted to the parishes of de Ferreros, de Susos and de Agnasal and allows Didacus of Chives and his family to erect funerary monuments in the chapel of the church of St. Michael. Other locations and peoples referenced in the document include the Deacon of Trujilla, Bonilla della Sierra the seat of the archbishop, Salamanca, Plasencia, and bishop of Abula (Avila). Document also references the "Lateranii satuta Concilii" (25th line from bottom). One word on line nine has been deliberately excised., clear papal documentary script (gothic semi-textualis nearing gothico-antiqua); bold display script on first line with elongated letters, and Produced in the papal chancery by the scribe G. Bonattus who provided his signature on the right side of the plica. Dated 6 August 1484 in the document. Behind the plica are two signatures: "A. Trapezuntius," a Curial secretary, and "N. de Gomfredis". On the dorse is an unusual inscription by a member of the papal chancery explaining that although the document is dated 6th August, it was not expedited until the 28th. Pope Sixtus IV died on the 12th of August, 1484, requiring the chancery to produce a mass of associated documents and thus delaying this bull's expedition. Three additional post-contemporary inscriptions on dorse, one is likely an exlibris mark. Acquired from the book-seller Karl W. Hiersemann (1854-1928) of Leipzig by C. L. Ricketts; purchased from Ricketts by Mackus Company, Fairlawn, Ohio and sold to Special Collections, Waldo Library on May 3, 2001.
