Could not overwrite the other copy already uploaded, here on wikimedia, which contains an error resulting in most of the image not being visible. This download was made through Wellcome's website, by searching for the image name L0032139 (which is the file name on their server, I believe), and then selecting download. The resulting download is a zip file containing the requested images.
Also, apparently the actual author is unknown: "There are approximately 23 copies of the Ripley Scroll in Although they are named after George Ripley, there is no evidence that Ripley designed the scrolls himself." [George_Ripley_(alchemist)]
Wellcome's site says it's a 16th century manuscript.
