[Schneider, Nina]

Thanks everyone for your helpful suggestion. I think "overs" it is.

Nina,
Erin's suggested "overs" which Glaister (p. 354) defines as "sheets or copies of a work printed in excess of a specified number, as with limited editions, copies of which are numbered serially.  Overs will be printed to make up spoiled copies, for reviewing purposes, or for presentation; they will not be numbered."

Hi everyone

My intern is sorting through the archives of a printer. She's run across a few stacks of printed leaves that seem to be extra printings. That is, if an edition was limited to 100 and the printer printed 103 sheets of one particular forme, then what is left are three extra sheets that are in excess of the edition.

I was thinking of using printers' waste or binders' waste, but that's not quite right. Neither are offprints since this material isn't complete.

Any ideas? It doesn't have to be an RBMS CV term, just a label for an archival collection.

Thanks!

Nina
