Summary/Abstract: Remains of the late-medieval book collection of the Poznań canon Mikołaj Hesken of Kościan (d. 1485) are currently in the collection of the Archdiocesan Archives in Poznań. During his research, Fr. Kamil Kantak described his collection, paying attention to the „stamps” on the book covers. The author of the article, after carrying out a closer analysis, stated that the aforementioned „stamps” are Mikołaj Hesken’s super-bookplates pressed with stamps. Further research has shown that it is a valuable material for the history of book proprietary marks in Poland. This is evidenced by, inter alia, chronology of super-bookplates, which makes them the oldest in Greater Poland.
