This parchment manuscript produced in 1438/39 was commissioned by
Solothurn mayor Henmann von Spiegelberg and his wife Margarethe von
Spins as a Mass book for use on the St. George's altar in their
chapel in the Cathedral of St. Ursen. The missal was probably
produced in Solothurn. The Roman Missal (First printed in Milan in
1474 under the title Missale secundum consuetudinem Romane Curie
still lacking the Rubricae generales and Ritus servandus) follows
the Missale curiae, i.e., the Mass book created in about 1220 for
the chapel of the papal palace.
