    I have this, which page is missing? The best I can tell, my copy is
    complete, but I will admit that it has been stored in a box for at least
    20 years. BTW, I also have the 2nd volume which has its own oddity. My
    copy comprises of signatures printed on what appears to be two grades of
    paper. At least they have aged to two different shades of light brown.
    Does anybody have a copy in similar condition?

    It is not missing, just loose.

    I do have books like that but my copy of V2 is not one of them. Huh.
    I had assumed if one book in the print run was like that, they all
    were.
