This link was made after a language model re-read the damaged OCR (deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro); the reading was accepted only because the number and date or title it reported agree with the catalog. Its note: “OCR misreads: 'Fy' for 'By', 'Corporaticn' for 'Corporation', 'feck' for 'Feb', 'Mm3E14' for 'MP3614', 'Ercthers' for 'Brothers'. Original date resolved as 1948-02-21 based on renewal date 1976-01-12 (27-28 year rule).”
