This report draws attention to a previously-unknown music broadsheet of Czech provenance deposited in the Newberry Library in Chicago under the call number ‘Case folio VM 1705.L232’. Its content is described and discussed and the printer identified; an attempt is also made to interpret the composer’s monogram ‘S. P. Z. P’. Together with other material for comparison, the report presents the printed sheet itself to the broader scholarly community for discussion, in the form of a facsimile and a critical edition.
