Wagner shows that there were two editions of this book in 1554. Their differences are only in the first gathering, in the introductory material, amendments to two erroneous page numbers, and no date in the colophon. In Wagner’s catalogue of Martin de Montesdoca’s works, these are nos IV and VII, which he calls Fuenllana (A) and (B). These copies are:

Fuenllana (A)
D-WIl [Qt 9762]
E-Mn R/5647

Digital reproduction in the Biblioteca Virtual de Andalucía

US-Wc — listed in BrownI but does not appear in online catalogue
A copy supposedly in Chile, Santiago, Biblioteca Nacional (according to Fenlon & Knighton 2006) cannot be verified from online catalogue online catalogue (checked 22/4/2011). It is possibly a reference to Diego Rosell y Fuenllana, Parte primera de varias aplicaçiones y transformaciones…

Newly located Spanish copies: Burgos, catedral; Granada: Centro de Documentación musical de Andalucía acquired a copy in September 2005. From a Madrid antiquarian bookseller, apparently from a private family library in Galicia. Price paid = 18,000 EUR.

Condition report on the copy held at US:NYp — Gary Boye inspected the copy of Fuenllana in the New York Public Library on 24 June 2015. His inspection revealed that "the Fuenllana was wet or in very humid conditions at some point--it is very wrinkled, but not mouldy. No evidence of printer corrections or having been played from. The binding appears to be from 16-17th centuries. It is incomplete though, with photocopies of the missing pages inter bound."
