A gathering of handwritten alchemical, Hermetic and Masonic manuscripts assembled by collector Manly P. Hall, copied in Europe between about 1500 and 1825 for practitioners of alchemy and initiatory orders. Pen-and-ink diagrams in brown iron-gall ink show magic squares of numbers inside circles, triangles holding hexagrams, sun and moon glyphs, and elemental triangles — usable as occult diagram stock.
