color:#1F497D">Christ Church Library has a copy, and the binding is just good enough that I wouldn’t have been able to say whether leaves were conjugate or not. In size,
I do think that it just barely qualifies as a Royal folio but is a bit too small to be considered an elephant folio or anything larger. That all being said, I think that, given the position of the watermarks (ours are centered between head and foot, but are,
perhaps, a bit offset towards the fore-edge) and the direction of the chain-lines, I would have called it a folio nonetheless. Could the single-leaf ‘gatherings’ be evidence of the printer’s decision to print on half-sheets?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

to it, and let me know what you decide to do with yours. And happy holidays!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span lang="EN-US">I am cataloging a book that I’m pretty sure is broadsheet format. The dimensions of the sheets are approximately 53 x 35 cm., and the table on p. 86 of Gaskell
(New Introduction to Bibliography. Oak Knoll Press, 2007) seems to show that as too large for any folio. And in addition, most of the “gatherings” in the book are only one leaf. It has vertical chainlines, and near the top of p. 106, Gaskell seems to say that
broadsheets can have vertical chainlines. So how could it be anything but broadsheet? But on the same page, he also says “the watermark would be offset from the middle of the leaf.” And in the leaves where I’ve found a watermark, it seems to be about in the
middle of the leaf. Does that disqualify it from being broadsheet? Am I missing something?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
