More Germanic influences on the VM zodiac (another crossbow human Sagittarius)

Thank you, Gioynich!
In 2015 I discussed a very similar image You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. (ONB Cod.1842).
The ONB manuscript is catalogued as Horae canonicae in Polonia Scriptae (Canonical Hours written in Poland) and the ONB site says it is from Breslau or Prague.

The whole zodiac series in Mf.2813 is so close to that in Cod.1842 (at least the few signs I have seen) that I think that one of the two might have been copied from the other.
The library site you linked ("dokument" tab) says that Mf.2813 was created in 1422 (czas powstania:1422, Göber, t. 3, s. 252). Indeed, the first page contains a table of years starting from 1422 (written as m.cccc.xxii). This could well be the earliest crossbow Sagittarius that has been found so far.
