Cuttings of Initials from the 'Pontigny Bible', II

The 1958 Alan Thomas description shown in the previous post records that the two initials were 'From the Hachette collection', in which they were described 'as being English'.

In the previous post we saw that a manuscript from Erfurt appeared, like many Erfurt MSS, in the 1836 von Bülow sale, before finding its way to Gillyatt Sumner.
