Giovanni Collodi of Lucca
A bifolium from a Notarial Register of Giovanni, son of the late Antonio Collodi of Lucca, in Latin, manuscript on vellum, Lucca, 3 September 1472, with an addendum dated 22 September 1482.
A land transaction in Capannori, in the province of Lucca.

309 x 239mm. A bifolium, 40 lines in a handsome Italian notarial hand, later annotations in margins (some marginal staining).

Provenance:
Colker MS 227; acquired in 1972 from Renzo Rizzi.

The document is a contract for the sale of land in Capannori, in the province of Lucca, by Giovanni, son of the late ?Marco Puccinello of Capannori, ‘laborator terre’, to Battista, son of the late Lorenzo de Rota for some thirty florins (‘florenorum triginta et boloz […] viginti’). The land sold in Capanori is ‘in loco ditto in Chanabbia’ (this appears in other documents as Canabbia), bordering on the east the land of the Abbey of Puteoli and on the west the land of the hospital of San Pietro. The contract, and the addendum ten years later, is notarised by Giovanni, son of the late Antonio Collodi of Lucca (‘Iohannes olim Antonii de Collodio’). The same Giovanni is mentioned in another contract in the Archivio di Stato di Lucca, 01-10-1468, Andreuccetti (deposito), mazzo n. 609.
