Summary:A group of Golden Age Spanish literary manuscripts, among them several poetic collections or cancioneros, was acquired by Cambridge University Library at a Bibliotheca Phillippica auction in 1970. A summary list of these is provided, together with lists of other similar MSS acquired at auction in 1973 and by bequest from the library of E. M. Wilson (d. 1977).
