Scanned at 600 dpi. Page size is 31 cm × 23.5 cm.
Link (Nos.1-3), (Nos.4-6) to this edition on Henle's website (accessed 28 July 2018), where Henle has put links to the preface (including an explanation of ornamentation) and the critical commentary. Because the editor's preface is dated 1971, the uploader believes the 2008 copyright date on the first page is bogus.
