Dear Maphisters,
just purchased David Woodward's 'Catalogue of Watermarks in Printed
Italian Maps 1540-1600', 1996, to get more details while cataloguing
some maps.
Since the mark itself changes it shape very much during the usage of the
paper mould, it would be very useful to have the distance between the
chain lines, which should be almost constant over the usage time.
Especially, if only a part of the watermark is present on a sheet.
Unfortunately, Woodward does not mention this distances.
Does anybody know if there is a list for chain line distances matching
with Woodward's catalogue?
Thanks,
Rainer
