Catalog notes

Checklist #481, Section 42 CHILDHOOD MAGIC (continued). Magnum (agency), French, 14 x 20 cm. Tenth Henri Cartier-Bresson plate in the checklist; count verified by grep this session against nine prior plates at photo-0028 (#31, France, Marriage), photo-0122 (#128, Indonesia, Land), photo-0182 (#190, Bali Indonesia, Woman’s Work), photo-0249 (#259, France, Food), photo-0277 (#288, USA, Relationships), photo-0352 (#366, France, Religious Expression), photo-0357 (#371, Kashmir, Religious Expression), photo-0395 (#409, China, Revolt), photo-0427 (#442, Iran, Government). First Cartier-Bresson plate set in Java in this catalog; an eleventh plate follows within this same batch at #483 (photo-0468, Spain). Across ten plates the country distribution is now France ×3 (#31, #259, #366), Indonesia ×2 (#128, #190 Bali Indonesia), USA ×1 (#288), Kashmir ×1 (#371), China ×1 (#409), Iran ×1 (#442), Java ×1 (#481 this row). The PDF page 25 image (read this session) prints the entry verbatim as ‘481 Java Henri Cartier-Bresson, Magnum, French 14 x 20’. ‘Java’ is the where-taken designation as printed by the checklist (today an island of Indonesia); the geopolitical context (in 1955 the Republic of Indonesia, recently independent from Dutch colonial rule) is general-knowledge framing NOT re-verified against any fetched source this round per CLAUDE.md anti-confabulation policy. Section 42 CHILDHOOD MAGIC mapped to sec-rededication-future per photo-0450 note (approximate, not canonical).
