[ModLib] Possible new variation on 224.1 uncovered

[Scot Kamins]

 I have confirmation on 1965 as the latest version without the extensions. Hornick reports a Spring 1965 without the list and a Fall 1966 with the list (which I also have).

Looks like we have a new Toledano number:  224.3. 224.2 is taken by the misnumbered Santayana, which is actually older than the 1st printing of the 18th Century Plays:

> Toledano #	Author	Title	Years in Catalog
> 224.1	Misc	Eighteenth Century Plays	1952 - 1970
> 224.2	Santayana	Philosophy of Santayana	1942 - 1952
> 
> 



The error goes all the way back to the first edition of The Toledano Guide (1917 - 1985). Of course, for legacy reasons we won't mess with the numbering.

I'll get the files updated by the end of the week. Credit goes to Bill Hornick for giving us a new collectable.
