The title of a book, printed in full or in brief, on the recto of the leaf preceding the title page. Its purpose is to protect the title page and to help the printer identify the book to which the first sheet belongs. May also appear on the recto of a leaf between the front matter and the first page of the text. Synonymous with bastard title.
