Flambart, Paul – see also under Choisnard, Paul, above
[1] Believed to have been published in 2006
[2] Internal bibliographical references show that it cannot predate 1978. Worldcat tentatively gives 1978, perhaps on the basis of similar reasoning
[3] This dating appears to be correct; yet the work could not be found in the Karlsruhe Virtueller Katalog or in Worldcat in any edition
[4] Fischer, the former owner of many German books in this collection, was an antiquarian book dealer in Pforzheim. He has dated his price list by hand in pencil. There are 38 books listed per full page. Many titles listed are in multiple copies; some are rarities; most but not all are German-language works
[5] These are presented in order of appearance in the magazine, by year and page, and not alphabetically ordered. Apparently this was a draft towards a better-sorted index
[6] Presumed from the context of the binding matching that of Fischer’s price list shown above
[7] The second draft is ordered properly by author and title, but appears to be only partial since there are far fewer pages
[7a] Director of curatorial services at The Israel Museum, Jerusalem
[7b] A publication accompanying an exhibition held at the museum in the same year. Internally, it comprises three main essays: one each by Cohen and Idol, and two by Fishof, each being lavishly illustrated, mostly in colour
[8] This copy was printed in 2009
[8a] After the original edition of 1996
[9] The original copyright date is given as 1998; the dates of other printings are not stated
[10] Of these cards, 14 represent a selection of mostly obscure asteroids (although including Vesta and Psyche); 6 represent Hamburg School planets (Cupido, Hades, Zeus, Kronos, Admetus and Vulcanus), one represents Chiron, and 12 represent the aspects in multiples of 30º
[11] The original copyright date is given as 1996
[12] Copyrighted 1999, this presumably representing the date of first publication
[13] The original copyright date is given as 1997
[14] The ‘Planets in their Dignity’ part of the title appears only on the front cover, and not on the internal title page
[15] The original copyright date given is 1996, presumably representing the date of the first printing
[16] The original copyright dates is given as 1996, presumed in relation to the first printing
[17] A detailed treatment of aspects between the Sun and Moon
[18] Copyrighted 1997, this presumed to represent the date of first publication
[19] The original copyright date is given as 1999
[20] Copyrighted 1978; the first printing of the second edition is dated to 1996
[21] Dated 2002 at the front but copyrighted 2002-4 on the copyright page. The front dating appears to relate only to the first printing from 2002 of the third edition. By all appearances, this printing is from 2004. The dates of the earlier editions are not given
[22] Pseud. of Choisnard, Paul, q.v.. (NB: he used the name Flambart consistently until 1922, and Choisnard thereafter, even on new editions of existing works)
[23] [?]: This is not entirely clear owing to the obscure handwriting
[24] [?]: Ibid.
[25] On inner title page this is misprinted as VI, but on front cover it is printed correctly
