These rare items get a 500 note that says, "Two parts continuously paged and bound dos-à-dos," which means "two-to-two," probably describing two full books joined in unison.
The term dos-à-dos refers to a binding structure in which two separate books are bound together such that the fore edge of one is adjacent to the spine of the other, with a shared lower board between them serving as the back cover of both.
