B outer forme Phase IIIa
Preparation for printing: all pages get new skeletons; B1r
receiVes 25 pairs of
acorns, with endpieces. Headline parentheses on B4V are the

the process of reimposition, some disturbance and damage occur
on B1r and 2v,
and the catchword is left off of 4v.
Pauses for correction: none. One copy shows a page-number shift on B4V.
After printing: all pages stripped and kept standing. B1r
loses its acorns along
with the page number.
This printing of B(o) is somewhat short with respect to the other text quires
in
Phase III—something prevents Norton from machining the full white-paper
stack. He
will complete it when he has dealt with whatever has caused the inter-
ruption.
Meanwhile, he strips the outer forme of B and puts it aside. The situ-
ation is
similar to the interruption in the run of quire A in Phase IIa, but here
only the
outer forme is affected and both sub-phases are backed up with the same
state of
the inner forme. Once again it is illogical for Norton to strip the skeletons
if
he expects to resume presswork soon. Nevertheless, after a presumably short
completing run, which constitutes Phase IIIb of the outer forme:
