For imprints of any date, we trace provenance, i.e. the names of former owners of the book, using appropriate MARC relator terms in $e to designate their relation to the book. Add $5NIC at the very end of the field, since the provenance tracing is copy-specific.
700 1_ (or 710 2_) for provenance
If the person signed the book: ",$e signer" at the end
If the person put a bookplate, stamp, or stamp in the booklabel in the book with their name on it, or if the book was inscribed to that person: ",$e former owner" at the end
If the person inscribed the book to someone else: ",$e inscriber" at the end
If the book was inscribed to the person: ",$e former owner" at the end
