what does the WB stand for. I have noticed that 4005s w the top rounded off do not carry this designation vs the 4005s w the squared edges top and bottom do.
can anyone tell me. thanks

"WB" is the shortened version of "WBBS" which designated "White Binding, Both Sides."

There is a tab on that spreadsheet that explains the designations.

So it's actually gotten to the point where our acronyms need to be shortened.

Well, you do know that "acronym" is itself an acronym for Alphabetically Concatenated Rendering Of Names Yielding Meaning...

Technically, WBBS and WB are not acronyms, they are abbreviations...

I could have sworn it was "Wide Boat...Both Sides!"
