This is the name given to three bundles of MS. letters, chiefly originals, of Gustavus Vasa. These, too, are preserved in the Royal Archives at Stockholm. Most of them are found transcribed in the Registratur. Some, not so transcribed, have been published in the already printed volumes of the Registratur, as supplements, and in the Svenska riksdagsakter edited by Hildebrand and Alin.
Gustaf I.'s rådslagar.
This is the name given to a bundle of original MSS. of the Cabinet resolutions under Gustavus Vasa. It is preserved in the Royal Archives at Stockholm. Most of these rådslagar have been published in the Svenska riksdagsakter edited by Hildebrand and Alin.
Palmskiöld samlingar.
This consists of over five hundred folios of documents collected and copied by Erik and Elias Palmskiöld about the year 1700, and contains copies of many original MSS. now lost. Portions of these folios have been printed. As now bound, volumes 2, 3, and 4 of that portion of the collection called number 1 are entitled Acta ad historiam R. Gustaui I., and are devoted wholly to the reign of Gustavus Vasa.
Apart from the above-named MSS., practically all documents bearing on the Swedish Revolution will be found printed in one of the following collections:—
Acta et litterae ad historiam Reformationis in Suecia, ed. E. M. Fant. Upsal., 1807. 4o.
Contains documents on the Reformation in Sweden.
Acta historiam Regis Christierni II. illustrantia, ed. P. A. Adde. Upsal., 1833. 4o.
