They definitely had page numbers. That was introduced just a few years
after the printing press was invented. It's just that, like today, a small
minority did not. It seems to me that it would be a good idea for the
proofreader
or the scanner to put them there.

You know, I have no idea if books back then didn't have page numbers,

Just some.
Wonder what Bookshare's policy is.
