Parchment seal covers (scraps with traces of writing on interior) remain. Secretary hand. Signature of John Machon on recto.One sheet of parchment with jagged top edge, part of a larger sheet on which the ‘indenture’ would have been copied out twice, the indented edge serving as a proof of authenticity of the two parts when brought back together. The item is in very good condition, although there is slight smudging on the upper and lower left of the sheet, as well as some minor fold-related damage near the middle. The text is ruled in plummet, with one vertical rule marking the left margin of the text block. Pricking is visible at both left and right margins. -- description from Ken Streutker, 2016
