Renaissance 20-Side Die?

Had quite the morning yesterday looking at Albrecht Dürer books at !
Found a hand-drawn cutout geometric solid, nestled inside the alphabet section of Albrecht Dürer's 1525 artist manual ... And it appears to still fold into a &D ready chaos agent, as well as serving as a bookmark!

Boxed Set?!

Henry Probasco of Cincinnati sold the Newberry his books in 1890; looks like there were a few surprises left in this specially-boxed 1864 set!
