There is no accidental before the top note of the 2nd quaver in GC and FE1 (→FE2→FE3). The patent inaccuracy was corrected in the remaining sources.

b. 156

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

..

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.

The cautionary signs next to c3, e3 and c were added by us. In turn, the flats before g and g1 are present in all sources.

Third in GC (→GE) & FE2 (→EE,FE3→FE4)

Octave in FE1
..

The version of FE1 is most probably a mistake (corrected in FE2 and subsequent FE), as in GC one can see no traces of corrections in this place.
