Verso: No Original Text or Drawings
Both halves blank before restoration; show-through of the recto war engines
Per the catalogue notes, both halves of this verso were invisible before restoration and bear no original writing or drawings; the faint forms visible are the show-through of the recto war engines, the counterweight sling-catapult above and the sixteen-crossbow wheel below.

Show-through of the recto war engines
Neither half of this verso carries original work. The faint, reversed forms seen here are the show-through of the recto (182r): the A-frame counterweight sling-catapult on the upper sheet and the great sixteen-crossbow wheel on the lower sheet.
