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: “Original date '6Augt6' interpreted as 6Aug46 based on renewal year 1973 (27 years later). Original number 'T494' likely LP494 (common OCR misread of LP as T). Renewal date '8Aus73' interpreted as 8Aug73.”
