Original filenames and photographed order are retained. Compilation dates and authorship remain provisional.

JDT-3S-5031 · Lot 3S: covers, page edges and identification note

Four exterior views show the lot 3S marker, brown covers and page edges. A close view and wider opening preserve the note reading J. Dow’s notes — probably copied from records. This inscription is evidence of an association, not proof of authorship by a particular Joseph Dow. These views remain associated with lot 3S. Headings are finding aids; dates copied in the text do not establish the date of compilation.
