Reader’s notes on the scan

  • Most fields were left blank by the user with a dash, or written incorrectly. The values written by the user spanning lines 5-13 and 14-26 have been parsed into their respective items, but the answers for 5 and 6 and 9-13 and 15-26 were originally dashed. Items 3,4,6 were penciled in on the left side: '11 gr.', 'built 1899', '3765' respectively.
  • Running number written sideways on left margin.
