<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I’m writing because I’m in a bit of a pickle. I’m currently cataloging a 17<sup>th</sup> century edition of Callimachus’s
<i>Pinakes</i>, an octavo. In the first volume, one gathering (signed ‘2i’) is interrupted after the 3<sup>rd</sup> leaf by 2 gatherings (signed ‘dagger’ and ‘2[dagger],’ respectively) before picking up where it left off with the rest of gathering “2i”. A printed
“Note to the Binder” at the end of the volume suggests that this was intentional/consistent across volumes in this edition. I’ve been rummaging through Bowers, but I can’t seem to find any guidance as to how to record this signature statement and was wondering
if someone with more experience would be able to clarify. Please let me know!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
