This article describes a copy of a Pigouchet book of hours for the use of Rome, dated 8 August 1497 (ISTC ih00387000). The copy includes a page-long note by the Antwerp-based monk and librarian Joannes Petrus Reyns (1722–1801), summarizing his attempts to discover something of the book’s history. This edition is notable for the various changes made to the title-page of six of the eight surviving copies: these changes are collated in this note.
