This book starts off with an introduction numbered in Arabic 5-22. Followed by graphic works numbered 1-76, one per (unnumbered) page. Followed by 2 unnumbered pages with an author bio and self-portrait.

Do I count 76? 22 + 76? 22 + 76 +2? 76 + 2?

Elizabeth (Alaska) I look forward to the answer to this. In the past, I have marked books with unnumbered pages as "unnumbered." I think those have all been children's picture books, however.

We don't really have a policy for counting pages in a book with no page numbers.

lethe | 16359 comments Thanks. Have changed to (22 + 76 =) 98 pages.
