Hear Hear @orietta_darold, so much to be discovered about paper use in late medieval England
Orietta Da Rold (@orietta_darold) profile pictureOrietta Da Rold@orietta_darold12 Mar 2019
At Wisbech and Fenland Museum today looking at #earlypaper bought for half a penny. Royal paper, two main paper stocks, possibly from the Marche regions, 1379 is first. @suz_paul @manuscriptslab @erik_kwakkel so much fourteenth century paper in England.

This is so interesting! In the medieval period, paper is often consider a cheap! It goes to show how perception often influence judgment. Heather Wolfe @FolgerResearch make a great point! Was early modern writing paper expensive? collation.folger.edu/2018/02…
