Yup, first copy split at T&C. Bookbinding skills not great either.

Paging every medievalist with a copy of The Riverside Chaucer that has split into parts or is habitually used as a doorstop... theguardian.com/books/2023/j…
Novel crimes: which is worst – folded corners, cracked spines, marginalia or cheese bookmarks?

Queen Camilla has been revealed as a page-folder. But that’s nothing compared with the punishments some people inflict on their paperbacks

Hi #medievaltwitter! Anyone seen this word before, which we see x 2 in this section; it appears to read (with abb. expanded) "euereyþer"? So "helþe of euereyþer" in the top visible line "euereyþer kynde" the line before the bottom. Anyone seen this term? Everything/ Everywhere?

Open day @UniKent means showing prospective students some treasures in @UniKentArchives with @Gothic_Desires including this 1598 Speght print of the works of Chaucer. Includes lovely glosses of Chaucer's 'hard wordes'.
