Calder's notes

Distinct dot touching the inside outer frame line opposite the top of the South East "7"; main position dot is centre and full.

Kershaw's notes

The LH oval guide dot is superimposed on top of the horizontal guide line. There is a short oblique flaw on the LH outer frame just above the "17".

Morel's notes

The oval dot is on centerline, and full. There is a faint horizontal short transfer on top right. An oblique dash is on the outer frameline, just east of the top of the 7, at lower right 17.  (pf 52.1)
