Could you give us the title, perhaps we have the same so that we can take a look ourselves.<br>
And even the BNF might make a mistake ...<br>

Subject: [DCRM-L] 32mo?<br>
<br>
Hi all,<br>
<br>
I have a 1644 publication, printed in Paris, measuring 11 cm, gathered in 8's and 4's with horizontal chain-lines and a watermark on the fore edge. Normally, I would call this a 12mo, but the only other record for this title is from a batch-load owned by the BNF and they have it down as a 32mo. Bowers and Gaskell (and the internet) are not helping me right now. Could it really be a 32mo?<br>
<br>
Thanks for any insight,<br>
<br>
Nina<br>
