(unless you can find evidence to the contrary). I would use the same OCLC record for both items and add a local note indicating that copy # is missing the portrait, includes X number of blank or mostly blank leaves, and is bound in two volumes.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">If the interleaved pages were heavily annotated, however, I might create a separate manuscript record for the interleavings with a 501 noting that it is bound with copy # <i>Principia</i>. Then
I would put both copies of the <i>Principia</i> on the OCLC record, add a local note indicating that copy # is missing the portrait and bound with the manuscript in two volumes, and then link the item records for the manuscript and copy # of the <i>Principia</i>
in my ILS. If that makes sense?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
