  b. 87-88

No markings in A

   in bar 88 in FE

   in GE & EE

 at the beginning of b. 87 is the only pedal marking in these bars in A. It is almost certainly an oversight by Chopin, who resumed writing markings after transitioning to a new line. FE (→GE,EE) added markings in b. 88, most probably at Chopin's request, while GE and EE also added a  at the end of b. 87.
