Notlar	Ms. codex., Title from colophon on p.451., Incipit: "امداد حمد بی عدد و اعداد سپاس بی قیاس مبدعی را که آثار ابداع او بر هر ورقی از اوراق و شجری از اشجار سمت ...", Colophon: "Scribal," triangular, reads "تمت المجلد الاول عن کتاب الموسوم باختیارات فی یوم 12 الجمعه عن [؟] ربیع الثانی سنه 848 هجریه م", Collation: i, 2 IV(16), 2+IV (26), 9 IV(98), IV+1 (107), IV (115), III+1 (122), 13 IV(226), i ; chiefly quaternions ; catchwords present ; occasional foliation in pencil, Hindu-Arabic numerals, often toward the middle of the page in the outer margin ; pagination in pencil, Western numerals, supplied during cataloguing., Layout: Written in 21 lines per page (single column) ; frame-ruled (impression of ruling board evident)., Script: Naskh with some elements of nastaʻlīq ; elegant, spacious Turkic or Persianate hand in a medium line ; virtually serifless with elongation and contrasting thickness of horizontal strokes, long but fairly straight shaqq on kāf, quite rounded with curvilinear descenders and terminating strokes of tāʼ, bāʼ, etc., pointing mainly in distinct dots but occasionally with stroke for two dots, point of final and free-standing nūn set down within tall, angled bowl (rightward stroke typically higher than leftward stroke which occasionally curves and nearly forms a complete circle around dot), rāʼ often set within preceding dāl (particularly in instances of در), some free assimilation of letters, etc., Decoration: Illuminated headpiece at opening on p.2, rectangular in shape with title "كتاب اختيارات بديعي" in gold tawqīʻ in cartouche over swirling vegetal ground, flanked by delicate vegetal motifs in gold on azure blue ground, surrounded by now oxidized bands (with paper breakthrough) and surmounted by further decorative band in blue, gold and white with red accents, itself surmounted by fine tīgh ; keywords and headings rubricated, along with two-teeth stroke abbreviation., Support: non-European (possibly Persianate) laid paper with roughly 8 laid lines per cm. (vertical, fairly straight) and chain lines occasionally visible ; formation somewhat cloudy with many inclusions (plant matter, bits of fiber, etc.), thin though sturdy and quite well-burnished to glossy, beige to light brown in color ; flyleaves in European laid paper (potentially machine laid) with "GIOR MAGNANI" below scrollwork with bird above tower (compare Heawood 3748) ; numerous native page repairs in brown paper., Binding: Heavy boards covered in brown leather ; Type III binding (without flap) ; likely two piece binding (trace of seam of overlapping flanges visible on spine) ; board linings in European laid paper ; upper and lower covers carry blind-stamped central mandorla and pendants filled with symmetrical floral / vegetal decoration, set off by rules dividing cover to quadrants and border in a row of s-shaped stamps defined by blind rules ; now sewn in white thread, two stations, no traces of endbands (perhaps lost in rebinding), rather tightly bound ; slightly larger than textblock and likely not original ; subtle repair to spine in red brown leather, new hinges in dark brown leather ; sound and overall in fairly good condition with some abrasion., Accompanying materials: a. Slip of paper with note in Persian in pen identifying title, date of copying, and subject -- b. Index card with descriptive notes typed in German as well as transcription in clear black ink of note on other slip "اختيارات بديعى دائره المعارف طب", Origin: As appears in colophon at close (p.451), transcription of this the first volume completed 12 Rabīʻ II 484 [ca. 29 July 1444]., Shelfmark: Ann Arbor, University of Michigan, Special Collections Research Center, Isl. Ms. 1060, Seven different ownership statements (one also a bequest statement) and six different seal impressions on ‘title page” (p.1), all at least partially obscured by page repairs ; small oval seal impression reading "لبعده الحسين الحسيني [?]" appears on incipit and facing page as well as adjacent to colophon where it is accompanied by a statement seemingly dated Muḥarram 1285 [1868 or 9] in Shushtar ; a few glosses in a hand other than that of the copyist, particularly at the opening of the codex ; rare marginal correction ; added notes on upper and lower board linings, as well as verso of final leaf, including note dated 2 Dhū al-Qaʻdah 1253 [ca. 28 January 1838] (on lower board lining) ; on verso of front flyleaf, inscribed by the Library "SPEC / ISLM \| 500591044 / SPAUL-2014 \| QUARITCH 4-17-14."
