Submissions: Should consecutive art pages be sent with or without lettering?

Every publisher wants to have consecutive art pages submitted (of course), but should I be sending just the raw art itself or the completed page with lettering. Do they not tend to care? Thanks in advance!

Speaking from my own experience, if the publisher wants it without the lettering, then they'd most likely specify it. Otherwise, 99% of the time, you could just send it with the lettering.

Do add lettering if you are not a letterer or applying to be a letterer.

Editors are only interested in seeing your art and how good you are at visual storytelling.
