Losbuch - Geomantie - Lebensplaneten - Verworfene Tage
A German manuscript fortune-telling book, the Losbuch, made in 1492 and held by Heidelberg University Library, written for readers consulting lots and planetary charts. Its pictures are hand-ruled wheel diagrams with a central medallion, a ring of labelled segments, and red and black handwritten German text, giving a designer a clear model for circular dial layouts, radial grids and decorative manuscript lettering in red and blue.
