"Some copies of L'Humore dialogo have a leaf E8 and others do not. Leaf E8 was misprinted and excised out of most copies by the binder. The leaf was blank on the recto and on its verso, it mistakenly repeated some of the text on F1v  and F2r. Whether a copy had the leaf is dependent upon how careful the binder was when binding up the work.... This is not a matter of edition or issue, it is simply a printer's error and a question of whether or not the binder caught it when the work was collated and bound."--Bookseller Ben Kinmont datasheet.
