<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hi,<br>
<br>
I'm new to this list, and relatively new to rare books cataloging. I have a small publication from 1818, that has two gatherings of A<span style="font-family:"Cambria Math","serif"">⁴</span> followed by a gathering of B² (possibly printed by half-sheet imposition).
So my question is, would the signature statement be:<br>
<br>
A<span style="font-family:"Cambria Math","serif"">⁴</span> A<span style="font-family:"Cambria Math","serif"">⁴</span> B²<br>
<br>
or do I need a superior pi (Gaskell, p. 331) for the duplicated preliminary signatures. If so, how do I encode this in OCLC Connexion?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
