Abstract
The Poole mss. are a collection of 130 ancient, medieval and
renaissance manuscripts and single leaves ranging from the 3rd to
the 16th century. The collection was formed by George Amos Poole,
1907- , printer, of Chicago, whose interest was in the
development of scripts which have had a direct influence on the
design of Western printing types, rather than in illumination and
decoration. Most of this material relates to religious matters.
