<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">I have another cataloguing question for you: how would you describe the attached (on a Dutch almanac from 1799)? It’s not quite accordion/concertina fold. The leaf has been folded into eight sections, some of which
have been pasted back-to-back, the others pasted down to the inside cover of the book. I hope the photos illustrate what’s going on. Let me know if you’d like more.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
