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: 'M5120' is MP5120, '€' is ©, 'R623876€' is R623876 with stray character. Date '12Jan76' resolved to 1976-01-12.”
