[DCRM-L] Concern for collocation of Moby Dick artist book

[Graham Skinner]

Thank you,

So, something like:

100 1_ Melville, Herman, $d 1819-1891, $e author.
240 10 Moby Dick. $p Etymology
245 10 Etymology / $c illustrated by Moussa Kone.
490 1_ Moby Dick filet ; $v no. A
830 _0 Moby Dick filet ; $v no. A.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Graham Skinner
