[DCRM-L] Oddity of bound with/signatures

[Noble, Richard]

Off the top of my head: I assume that the 1690 *De structura gladularum* was
issued as a supplement to *Opera omnia* (which were no longer truly
"omnia"). Has it a title page of its own, or just a caption title? The only
independent publication of it that I can find is the London edition
published by Richard Chiswell--probably the first edition, as was the
London edition of *Opera omnia*.

If copies of *Opera omnia* that do contain this supplemental work have the
original title page, then its presence in any one copy is essentially
multiple-item-specific (so to speak). One should account for its possible
presence in a 500 note in the general record; a "with" note relating to it
would be local 590. An analytic ought to be made for the supplement, and
since it doesn't appear to have been issued independently by Van der Aa, it
should have a general note regarding the circumastances of its
publication--which *could* be a 501, I suppose, though I don't think
there's a great deal of gain in so tagging it.
