b. 54-55

composition: Op. 24 No. 1, Mazurka in G minor

 in A (→GE1)

 in FE (→EE) and GE2 (→GE3)

..

The mark   in A (→GE1) reaches the crotchet g1. In FE (→EE) it was reproduced inaccurately, its extent shortened by a quaver. A similar change was introduced in GE2 (→GE3); perhaps the ink blot at the end of the hairpins in A was interpreted as their shortening by Chopin.

b. 54-56

composition: Op. 24 No. 1, Mazurka in G minor

..

In A, the end of the slur was drawn inaccurately  – . Leading the slur to the grace note is inadmissible in this context. If one were to take into account the extent of the L.H. slur, one could conclude that the R.H. slur does not go beyond bar 55 either. Still, it seems more probable that what Chopin had in mind was a slur similar to that from bars 6-8. This is how his intention was understood in GE (→FEEE).

composition: Op. 24 No. 1, Mazurka in G minor

..

In A the left hand slur reaches above the rest in the following bar. It is just one example of  the flourish with which Chopin wrote many slurs in this Mazurka

A staccato dot in A and GE2 (→GE3)

No dot in GE1 (→FEEE)

..

The staccato mark written in A was overlooked in  GE1 (→FEEE). The inaccuracy was corrected in GE2 (→GE3).

The accent for both hands in  A and EE

The accent for the right hand in GE (→FE)

..

The allocation of the accent to one hand does not result from the notation of A. In GE (→FE) it was clearly assigned to the left hand. The notation of EE seems to be closer to A.
