Catalog notes

Checklist #371, Section 28 Religious Expression. Magnum (agency), French, 36 x 49 1/4 cm — among the larger plates in this section. Seventh Cartier-Bresson plate in the checklist; count verified by inspection of the just-added rows in this batch (cf. photo-0352 at #366 within this same batch, which was the sixth). First Cartier-Bresson plate set in Kashmir in this catalog; the prior six total Cartier-Bresson plates were set in France (×3: #31, #259, #366), Indonesia (×2: #128 Indonesia, #190 Bali Indonesia), or USA (×1: #288). PDF OCR on page 18 rendered the agency as ‘l’I.agnum’; read here as ‘Magnum’. ‘Kashmir’ is the country/region designation as printed by the checklist; the political-geographic context (Princely State of Kashmir and Jammu / post-1947 partition framing) is not stated in the document and is not resolved here. Section 28 RELIGIOUS EXPRESSION mapped to sec-rededication-future per photo-0348 note.
