  b. 156

At the beginning of the 2nd half of the bar before the bottom note of the second, GC and FE1 (→FE2) have one  before each of the notes instead of . This easy to detect mistake – none of these flats is necessary at this pitch, whereas a1 appears in the part of the L.H. – was corrected in GE, by adding another  before the bottom note. The correct notation is included in FE3 (→FE4) and EE, which in both cases could have been a result of Chopin's intervention.
A double flat before the top note of the penultimate chord was added only in GE and EE2.
