That looks fine to me except for the 830, which I would have begun (for
grammatical reasons) at Opuscula issued [etc]. 

I did consider Sette of Odd Volumes, but then thought that was an edit too
far.

I'm stumped. While working on our collection of privately printed opuscula
issued to the members of the Sette of Odd Volumes, I have before me a title
page with the series statement in the imprint. I'm not sure what to do about
this. There is an OCLC record for it (6657594), but LC did not transcribe.

The imprint reads:" Imprinted for Private Circulation as Opusculum Number
Fifty-two of the Sette of Odd Volumes by the Chiswick Press. Mdccccv"


Here's what I'm thinking:

260 __ $a [London] :$b Imprinted for Private Circulation ... by the Chiswick
Press,$c MDCCCCV [1905]
490 1_ $a Opusculum Number Fifty-two of the Sette of Odd Volumes 
830 _0 $a Privately printed opuscula issued to members of the Sette of Odd
Volumes ;$v 52.

Thanks for any insights.
