May I ask where you found this image? You tickled my paleographic interest.

Unsettling looking shave. I snarfed the whole pic:
What's on the floor? It looks like a leftover foot from his last leg shaving job.Last edited by MisterMoo; 10-30-2013 at 06:20 PM.

Thank you, a most interesting link. As it just so happens, I'm studying a (mainly) early 16th century English manuscript ('commonplace book') for my MA thesis, which includes medical recipes in the more popular tradition (as opposed to the more scientific tradition) as well as astrological guides for bloodletting and whatnot. So you can say I find this stuff fascinating.
