• Slide Roll A (33 Slides) Late Antiquity to Carolingian Period
  This slide roll spans a period from the first century AD to the carolingian period. Amongst its highlights are slides of both writing and illuminating in the Vespasian Psalter, the Lindisfarne Gospels, The Book of Nunaminster and several great carolingian gospel books including the Grandvaal Bible. There are several examples of roman cursive hands, and good examples of uncials, half uncials, informal insular cursive and carolingian minuscule.
• Slide Roll B (29 Slides) Late Anglo Saxon to Protogothic
  This slide roll concentrates on late Anglo Saxon Britain and follows through to the beginning of the gothic period. It shows examples of the classic English caroline hand (as in Harley 2904) and of simple built up capitals (versals). The slides also illustrate several styles of early medieval illumination; polychromatic pen drawings in Harley 603, the rich illumination of the Benedictional of St Ethelwold, and the elaborate yet naive style of the Silos Apocalypse from Spain. Other highlights include close ups of the hand of Edui Basan. The roll concludes with a fine protogothic manuscript.
• Slide Roll C (23 Slides) The High Middle Ages
  This roll covers the period of the high middle ages. It contains examples of all the major kinds of gothic scripts and extracts of the writing and illumination in such manuscripts as the Evesham Psalter, the Luttrell Psalter and the Bedford Hours. There are also some fine examples of complex page layouts. The roll concludes with a musical manuscript written in a circular form.
• Slide Roll D (33 Slides) The Renaissance
  This roll principally concerns scripts in Italy. It contains many good examples of cursive chancery hands and shows formal manuscripts written by, amongst others, Bartolomeo San Vito and Arrighi. The Arrighi manuscript is Royal 12 C viii, originally presented to Henry VIII, the slides also show details of its elaborate binding. Writing by the future queen Elizabeth I is shown and the roll concludes with slides of William Morris' manuscript 'The Rubyat of Omar Kyyam' in which he employs a script influenced by the hand of Arrighi.

The Slides are supplied in roll form, suitable for mounting as 2" x 2" slides. Each roll is despatched in a stout plastic tub, accompanied by short descriptive notes.
