The incipit of the temporal (f. 1r: Incipit missale secundum usum
maioris ecclesie gebennensis) indicates that this missal was meant
for the use of St. Pierre Cathedral in Geneva. This very neat
volume, containing no calendar, no Sanctorale and no Commune
Sanctorum – with the exception of one erased column of text (f.
145v) – was probably produced in Geneva in the 15th century.
According to Huot, this is the oldest liturgical manuscript to have
entered the collection of the Bibliothèque de Genève at the end
of the 17th century.
