In 1995 the Huntington Library and the Yushodo Co. Ltd. of Japan produced a color facsimile of this beautiful manuscript. The transparencies that were the basis of the landmark color facsimile were then used to make a full-size monochromatic facsimile an edition of special usefulness for those involved in textual and other studies where color is not of primary significance. The Huntington's purpose in producing the monochromatic facsimile is to make available an edition that is more readily affordable to students scholars and libraries. Elegantly printed by the Stinehour Press of Lunenberg Vermont the facsimile conveys the trim texture and decoration of the original manuscript pages. It also features a color frontispiece the page that begins the "Knight's Tale".
