the only reminder of that notice lies in the reproduction of the book's colophon, laid out by Andrew Hoyem, namely, a handwritten notice that this was "copy 126"

Actually right next to the copy number you quote the text of the colophon reads:

It is published by the Arion Press with the novel as part of the two-volume edition, limited to 200 numbered copies for sale and 26 lettered copies hors de commerce, that was completed in the spring of 1994.

This reminds a little of the recently published book, The Invisible Gorilla, which is about, in part, how conscious focusing can cause us to ignore significant matter lying right before of us. Apparently this can happen to everyone.
