<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hello All,<br>
<br>
I think I may have an unrecognized variant of <i>De la prothèse immédiate, appliquée a la résection des maxillaires</i> (1889) by Claude Martin.<br>
<br>
The records in OCLC all have the pagination as x, 440 pages, but the copy I have is vi, 440 pages, the Roman numerals in both cases representing the preface.<br>
<br>
Compared to the digitized copy at The Internet Archive ( <a href="http://archive.org/stream/delaprothseimm00mart#page/n9/mode/2up" target="_blank">
http://archive.org/stream/delaprothseimm00mart#page/n9/mode/2up</a> ), the content of the preface in my copy is the same, but is set in a smaller font, taking less space. The title page, colophon, and main text block appear to be the same.
<br>
<br>
Is this a variation worthy of a new record? Or should I use the existing NLM record in OCLC, and just make a change in the local catalog (with appropriate notation, of course).<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
Barbara<br>
