b. 438

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

No mark in FE & EE1

Wedge in GE & EE2 (→EE3)
..

The missing staccato mark for the 1st quaver in the L.H. must be considered an inadvertence of Chopin or of the engraver of FE in this case. The wedge was added in GE and EE2 (→EE3).

b. 440

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

No fingering in FE (→GE)

Fontana's fingering in EE

Fingering written into FEH
..

Both the fingering of FEH, although written by a foreign hand, and the identical indications in EE are almost certainly compliant with the Chopinesque one. Cf. bars 416-417.

No fingering in FE (→GE)

Fontana's fingering in EE

Fingering written into FEH
..

The compliant fingerings of FEH and EE almost certainly correspond also to the Chopinesque fingering – cf. bars 416-417.

b. 440

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

No martks in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

Staccato dots in GE3
..

As in the previous case (cf. bars 416-422), GE3 arbitrarily provided the first two semiquavers with staccato dots. There is a similar situation in bars 442, 444 and 446.

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

..

In FE, there is no  raising c2 to c2. Visible traces of corrections in print reveal that it was a​​​​​​​1 that was the original version; it was moved to the correct pitch in the proofreading, yet without . This patent oversight (of the engraver or of Chopin at the time of marking the correction) was revised both in GE and EE.
