Transcription Notes:
"[[preprinted]]" is not correct, for the love of all that's holy to you, stop it. From TC Coordinator: The use of "[[preprinted]]" and "[[/preprinted]]" is correct here as it surrounds only preprinted text, an important distinction. Please be kind when making observations and offering corrections. Thank you.
