<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"High Tower Text",serif;color:#1f497d">I agree with Richard absolutely on this. Deborah’s argument is an impressive bit of reasoning, but other issues aside, it does not take the commonsense expectations
of readers, or the observed realities of traditional book making, into account. I would expect anything described as “[2] leaves of plates” to consist of two separate images produced from two distinct plates. I would expect anything described as “[1] folded
leaf of plates” to cover EITHER a folded leaf attached to a stub at one end, or one folded in the middle, and attached to a stub at the gutter. If it was printed from a single plate onto a single leaf, with the intent of presenting a single image, surely it
REMAINS a single leaf, even when folded. <u></u><u></u></span></p>

<i>not</i> to have two leaves, but a single leaf that can be fully unfolded. I suppose that could be called a "double" leaf, but "2 leaves" is quite misleading. It can be bound to a stub at center or at one edge, a copy-level binding variation. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
