    - 'BMC and GW both give the collation as [Aa] b-f A-I8 [K4], which would suggest that there is only a single gathering of 8 leaves immediately before sig. b.  BMC goes on to say that there should be a total of 132 leaves (which would necessitate two gatherings of 8 before sig. b).  These initial gatherings would perhaps best be described therefore as [A] [a]8. '
