Writing about the Z and Y series, Jeff Wilson asked:
>Mine has note testifying to both symptoms - Is this some hybrid ZY beastie?

More like yours is the annonymous ancestor to all the others, the first to
escape the "to burn box"!  (I really was going to destroy them, as you know
-- it is just my soft heart and the terrible sense of waste that kept me
receptive to another way, and eBay auctions seem to be perfect.)

That was before the taxonomies of Z and Y were discovered.  OTOH, it is
possible for a given book to have both symptoms, it is just that the Y is
dominant for determining whether a book is Z or Y.
