Low confidence. This number was found loose in a stretch of OCR where two printed columns are interleaved, so its own © date clause could not be read; the link rests on the number and the renewal year alone. Read the page image before relying on it.

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: “Title is not clearly associated with this renewal in the OCR chunk; surrounding lines suggest it may be 'SEEING SPOTS' but the text is garbled. Original number LP8807 is read from the line.”
