Issues : Errors repeated in GE

b. 36

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

..

The sources are lacking in the  lowering d2 to d2, which is a patent inaccuracy, repeated almost certainly after [A].

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

Minim without dot in GC (→GE1)

b. 39

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt II

..

In the last third on the 3rd crotchet in the bar in FE (→GE1→GE2), there is no  restoring e2. The correct notation is featured in EE and GE3; the mark was also added in FES. In melodic lines led in thirds, such mistakes would happen to Chopin quite often – cf. e.g. bars 88 and 90 in this movement of the Concerto as well as the Etude in G minor, op. 25, no. 6, bar 12 or the Mazurka in E major, op. 6, no. 3, bars 11, 13 and analog. A similar situation in bar 41.

b. 40

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt II

..

On the 3rd beat of the bar A does not have flats lowering c1(2) to c1(2), which is Chopin's patent oversight: the A minor key is valid already from bar 37 and in the discussed bar it was confirmed by a  before the top most note of the passage in the 1st half of the bar. The sign in the R.H. was added already in GE (→FE→EE), whereas the  in the L.H. was added only in GE2.
