==Annotation== 

The transmission of Egils saga and the manuscripts on which it is preserved. Jón Helgason criticises Finnur Jónsson’s decision to disregard paper manuscripts in his edition of the saga (1886-88) and makes the case for the value of these manuscripts. A detailed discussion of manuscripts AM 463 4to., AM 560 4to. and AM 458 4to. in support of this argument. 

==Lýsing==

Um varðveislu Egils sögu og Egluhandrit. Jón gagnrýnir Finn Jónsson fyrir að gefa pappírshandritum sem geyma Egils sögu engan gaum í útgáfunni sinni (1886-1888) og færir rök fyrir gildi þeirra. Máli sínu til stuðnings fjallar hann ítarlega um pappírshandritin AM 463 4to., AM 560 4to. og AM 458 4to.
