<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">I would love some help answering a question posed to me by one of my catalogers recently:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">When should we be defining an imprint as fictitious rather than false? Generally, I have used false imprints to describe those that are purposefully misleading but still attributed
to an actual city, such as saying an item was printed in Paris when it was actually printed in London. I’ve applied fictitious imprints to materials that claim to be printed in a fictitious location, such as Utopia or Arcadia.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">But how about ancient cities? One of my catalogers came to me with an item that was printed in Philadelphia, but claims to have been printed in Ephesus. I’m inclined to say this
is a fictitious imprint, but keep flip-flopping on my thinking. What do others think, false or fictitious?
