There is also "Illegible markings" in Provenance, but that doesn't seem correct
either. Feel free to submit a proposal. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

(but no cat prints)<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>

<DIV class=Section1>
<P class=MsoNormal>Those of you on sharp-l might remember a message last July
about a copy of a Mentelin incunable that had the shop’s 15<SUP>th</SUP> century
cat’s paw prints (in ink) walking across one of the leaves. The e-mail noted
that Mentelin is known to have been a sloppy printer. I thought I’d check our 2
Mentelin books to see if the cat visited them, too. Alas, I didn’t find any paw
prints but I did find lots of evidence of sloppiness—ink smudges every dozen
pages or so, one page has a spectacular palm print in ink in the margin—perhaps
Mr. Mentelin’s own!—and another has major offsetting in the margin. I looked
through the Printing thesaurus and didn’t find anything for messy printing, but
I’d like to bring this out somehow with a genre/form term—any ideas? Not that I
expected “palm prints” but something like ink smudges or offsetting I would have
expected—but maybe I just wasn’t checking under the right term? Anyway, any
suggestions would be appreciated. <o:p></o:p></P>
