If he isn’t the very model of a late-16C Bavarian cannons master! That may not roll off the tongue as readily, but you can imagine coming face-to-face with this fellow on LJS 442 fol. 2r and attempting to convince him that there is the slightest thing wrong with who he is or what he is called. LJS 442 consists of the Buch von den probierten Künsten (Book of the practical arts) of Franz Helm, a manual for the production and use of artillery and explosive weapons. This appears to be identical in content to his Feuer Buech– the latter being, of course, where the legendary Rocket Cat of UPenn Ms. Codex 109 is housed.Manuscript description and digital images can be found here at OPenn. -- source link
