Single-sheet tack from 1672 with a clean main hand throughout the upper two-thirds and a later, slightly different hand inserting a renewal clause across the lower third. The renewal clause uses a marginally lighter ink and a tighter line spacing than the original. Reviewed slowly across two visits before any opinion was offered to the client.
