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 number R421616 appears in the line 'M9850. Encyclopaedia Britannica Educational Corp. (PWH); 14sep67; R417489' but the surrounding context shows it is part of the record for PYGMIES OF AFRICA. The OCR text is interleaved: the line 'PYGMIES OF AFRICA, a motion picture in two reels by H. C, Raven. © 4Oct39;' is followed by 'M9850. Encyclopaedia Britannica Educational Corp. (PWH); 14sep67; R417489' and then 'R421616,' on the next line. The renewal number R421616 is likely a misread or duplicate entry for the same renewal, but the record clearly belongs to PYGMIES OF AFRICA with original number MP9850 (read as M9850). The renewal claimant and date are taken from the line with R417489, which is the primary renewal number for this record.”
