      By a result of \textit{J. Kahn} [Math. Z. 175, 219-247 (1980; Zbl 0443.06010)] every at least three-dimensional locally projective linear space which satisfies the bundle theorem can be embedded into a projective space. The author proves a similar embedding theorem for linear spaces which are not necessarily locally projective. Instead he requires that for any two bundles there are two points on every line which are incident with a line of each of these bundles. This result can be used to show that \([0,m]\)-spaces admit a projective embedding [cf. the author, J. Comb. Theory, Ser. A 70, No. 1, 66-81 (1995)].
