St. Paul im Lavanttal, Stiftsbibliothek, Cod. 7/1 (olim XXIX Kassette 1; olim XXV a. 7) is the eponymous copy of the Collectio Sanblasiana (Wirbelauer's "S", Maassen's "Cod. Sanblasianus 6", Green's Sankt Paul "XXVa/7").

The codex was at the Reichenau in medieval times, transferred to St. Blasien in the late 18th century, and in 1807 brought to its present home. It is badly damaged from fol. 151 on.

According to the Karlsruhe catalogue p. 121, it has 195 fol.; part I (153 fol.) is said to be Italian, saec. VIII (?) and described in detail in the catalogue. According to Lowe, CLA 1457, part I is saec. VIII-IX, while part II is "of somewhat later date, early Caroline of Italian type".


Not to be confused with St. Paul im Lavanttal, Stiftsbibliothek, 6/1, as Maassen apparently did, referring to this manuscript as „no. 6“. He describes it as "in quarto, fol. 1-154 saec. VI." and makes no mention of the rest of the manuscript, but nonetheless his "Sanblasianus 6" is the same manuscript as "Stiftsbibliothek, 7/1"; for example, the Karlsruhe catalogue and Maassen mention the entry "liber monasterii Augie maioris" on fol. 9r.

Note that Cod. 7/1 is not among the digitized Sankt Paul manuscripts at UCLA.
