Summary/Abstract: The remains of the late medieval book collection belonging to the Poznań Canon, Mikołaj Hesken of Kościan (died 1485), are currently held in the Archdiocesan Archive in Poznań. Conducting research on this collection, Rev. Kamil Kantak described it paying special attention to the ‘marks’ on the covers of the books. Having analysed the collection in detail, the author concluded that the mentioned ‘marks’ are supralibros of Mikołaj Heksen stamped with seals. The further research revealed that they are valuable materials for the history of the bookplates in Poland, as these are the oldest supralibros in Wielkopolska (Greater Poland).
