One of the parts bears the stamp of Johannes Prunettus, in his role as promoter of the faith. The promoter of the faith must have a critical eye in the instruction of the canonization file.
Binding with the arms of Benedict XIV (Prospero Lambertini), pope from 1740 to 1758 who will canonize Camille de Lellis in 1746.
