Or bought them directly from a tanner, and folded them where they would be cut later or folded to produce the VMS.

Could a layman/men afford so much vellum directly from the tanner? I would assume the creator(s) of the VMS were not professionals since the drawings look amateurish and there are no line markings in the text likke a pro would do.

So I would assume we're talking about someone who is totally unfamiliar with professional scribal professions. Yet has a boatload of money to spend by him/herself on pure uncut vellum?
