Dear Arthur,

To add to your collection:

1) The introduction to Kapsberger's Libro Quarto loses some very important dots 
in the SPES facsimile.

2) There is a note missing in the Minkoff facsimile of Campion's guitar music.

I can provide chapter and verse, if you like.

Best wishes,

Stewart McCoy.
