“[1] p.”? For convenience of cataloging, the rule allows us to ignore the
fact that the two items were issued together on one sheet. Therefore might
we ignore the sheet and recognize one page only?

One page, I think. But the question is whether to use "1 sheet ([1] p.)" or
just "[1] p."

Item in hand is a single sheet publication with two works (one on each side)
lacking a collective title, and it is impossible to determine which side
should be read first. According to 1G7 one is instructed to make a separate
bibliographic record for each side of the sheet and include a formal “With
on verso” note in each record. Fine.



But what is one to enter in the extent element in the physical description
field of each record? One page or two?



Thanks in advance.
