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 misread 'Nov40' as 'Novi0' and 'Twentieth Century-Fox' as 'Twentieth Sora'. Original number L10310 interpreted as LP10310 based on context (photoplay).”
