We are auctioning those nine in nine separate auctions. Note that this poster has a tagline of Charlemagne et les Ecoliers (literally translates to "Charlemagne and the Schoolchildren"). Charlemagne was King of the Franks from 768, King of the Lombards from 774, and Emperor of the Romans from 800. Part of Charlemagne's success as a warrior, an administrator and ruler can be traced to his admiration for learning and education. He greatly increased the provision of monastic schools and scriptoria (centers for copying books). What IS linenbacking?
