[DCRM-L] Term for adhesions?

[Deborah J. Leslie]

If they're pictorial, Extra-illustrated copies is appropriate, even if they don't illustrate the text. 

At the Folger, we will call something extra-illustrated in a note if it has extra stuff stuck in, but will only trace it as Extra-illustrated if there is so much extra stuff to necessitate rebinding. Otherwise we trace as "Insertions." As is obvious, we understand "illustrated" to cover a multitude of genres.

>From our documentation:

Extra-illustrated copies (Provenance)
 	Folger practice: Use only when enough material was added to necessitate rebinding. Otherwise, use Insertions (Provenance)

Insertions (Provenance)
 	Use for any kind of insertion that might allow identification of the provenance, e.g., autograph letter, news clipping, photograph, etc. Folger practice: Use for insertions with intrinsic interest (e.g., flyers, pictures, flowers, newspaper clippings), whether there is just one or several. Do not use for insertions without intrinsic interest, such as a plain strip of paper used as a bookmark, unless there's firm evidence of specific former owner placement (for example, if it's pinned). For numerous insertions requiring rebinding, use Extra-illustrated copies (Provenance).

Thanks Jane. I didn't consider that term because these aren't really illustrations, more like little vignettes that have nothing to do with the text.

Colleages:

I have a book that has been embellished with woodcuts cut from a different book (unidentified) and mounted in various places to create head- and tail-pieces. I'm not sure how to trace these embellishments.

Looking at RBMS Provenance Evidence, "Insertions" and "Grangerized copies" seem to be the closest. But "Grangerized copies" lacks a scope note and  in the book I'm cataloging the images are fully pasted onto the page.

AAT has a term "attachment", but it seems to refer to what we think of as attachments in an email.

Any suggestions are most welcome.

Thanks!

Nina
