Manly Palmer Hall collection of alchemical manuscripts, 1500-1825
A bound volume from the Manly Palmer Hall collection of alchemical, Hermetic and Masonic manuscripts copied between 1500 and 1825, now at the Getty Research Institute and compiled by the Los Angeles occult writer Hall. The pictures here are the book's marbled endpapers and board edges: scarlet grounds combed into black and dark-brown swirls, with leather corners and gilt fillets visible at the gutter, usable as high-resolution backgrounds, cover stock, or repeating pattern fills.
