Colleagues:

Rod's response was exactly right. I have both the Large Type 26th
which Ben descibes (with every other page blank for notes), and
the newer Large Type 27th. The latter lacks the blank pages, but the
printing is NOT the enlarged-from-photos of the 26th; the typeface is
beautiful and clear, without the damaged leters etc. of previous large-type
editions.

What is being sold now is the 27th, Grossdruck--a lovely, attractive,
and readable edition.

Mine not only has wide margins, but every other page is blank for notes.

Otherwise, it is not noticeable different from my smaller NA27 (except that
the large print edition I have is the 26th).

The print is significantly larger and quite pleasing for prolonged study.
