To be a wet blanket at the Successive Entry picnic:

I had a look at some 1973 and 1975 issues of Paris-Match. True,
the word "Nouveau" is tucked in over the cover title, and yes,
the cover here would be the prime source, but nowhere else in the
issues I looked at did the word appear--masthead, subscription
information, all other self-references were strictly
"Paris-Match".  I didn't see an ISSN no. anywhere.  Issue
numbering has continued sequentially since 1949.

>From the standpoint trying to provide records which are clear,
accessible, and no more complicated than *necessary* (as many of
us are encouraged--not to say, under the gun--to do these days),
is there anything to be gained by turning the single record for
Paris-Match into three (the current one requiring a 130), which
adding a "246:13: Nouveau Paris-match |f1972-1976"  would not
better accomplish?
