new Molina printing

[Ian Robertson]

Hello Walter,

Caroline Dodds has kindly supplied relevant links for the Porrua 
website. As for the facsimile version of Molina--I don't have the 
reference, but I do hope to be in Mexico City again in a couple of weeks 
or so. If no one has posted the reference/publishing info before that 
time, I will see if I can get it for you.

Best, Ian
