2576 Mexican. Mexican or Aztec Manuscript. • 
A roll composed of 15 skins of parchment joined together, 19 feet 4 inches long, 
about 7 inches wide, written in a character presumed to be that of one of the 
aboriginal languages of America, most i^robably Mexican or Aztec; apparently 
very ancient. 
This manuscript has baffled all the experts to whom we have shown it, to 
none of whom is the character known. It would seem from the disposition of 
the lines to read from left to right. In any case It must be regarded as a, groat 
curiosity. — Berendt Sale Cat., No. 2956.
