4. Notes on Access
- This is a lead packet, not a primary-source packet.
- The stronger documentary material for the
1603and1624Carleton books already lives in the related packets cited above. - The relationship between the
1624Jaggard printing and the First Folio is preserved here only as a Ken Feinstein tweet claim, not as a direct archival witness. - This packet is therefore functioning mainly as a hub pointing to stronger Carleton/Chamber packets, not as an independent Jaggard evidence packet.
