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: “The renewal record for R258517 is interleaved with surrounding lines. The original registration is '© 30Jan35; L3608' (LP3608). The renewal claimant and date are taken from the line 'Loew's, Inc. (PWH); 2Feb60; R251419' which appears to be part of the same record, but the renewal number R251419 is different. However, the pattern shows that R258517 is associated with the original L3608, and the claimant/date are likely from the same block. The title 'WHISTLING IN THE DARK' is from the line above, which is part of the same record context.”
