[DCRM-L] transcription of info following curly bracket

[Randal Brandt]

Since I actually did catalog this particular example, here's how I did it:

A Paris : $b Chez Brunet, libraire, rue de Marivaux, au The'a^tre 
italien : $b [Chez] Vente, libraire des menus plaisirs du roi, rue des 
Anglois, pre`s celle des Noyers, $c MDCCLXXXIII [1783]

What I did not do, however, was make the note. I'll correct that 
oversight. This is a fairly common occurrence in French imprints (I'm 
not so sure about other languages), with the individual publishers or 
booksellers not grammatically linked in any way except the "Chez" and a 
brace.

It will be great to include this and similar types of examples in 
Examples to Accompany DCRM(B)!
