UPDATE: The following image is a better example of the use of the suspended epsilon in both the new leaf and the Krentz leaf. Notice the near identical letter forms of the first three letters απε as well as the shape and placement of the breathing mark.

Congratulations ! We have already added your identifications with a link to your blog in our database of Greek manuscripts Pinakes (see http://pinakes.irht.cnrs.fr/notices/cote/id/115061 and http://pinakes.irht.cnrs.fr/notices/cote/id/12235). May you indicate us the shelfmark of the leaf from Montreal ? We will be glad to hear of the other leaves you alluded to in your post !

Excellent! Yes, the shelf mark of the Montreal leaf is "MS Greek 11."

This was forwarded to me by a friend. I got my leaf in 1961 from the Internationale Antiquariat in Amsterdam, Menno Herzberger the owner. Kurt to add a bit to the background information.

Thank you very much for this information, Prof. Krentz. It would be interesting to know the history of this lectionary codex, because your leaf and the McGill leaf were obviously at some point separated from it. It is of course possible that there are other leaves out there, but that remains to be seen. Thank you very much again for posting here. I had written to you last week about information regarding your leaf using an e-mail address I found online ([email protected]).
