Context (Amendments / updates)
1987.1003.9 should have 11 blades, but only 10 blades were found in the envelope for this idno. However, 21 blades were found in the envelope for 1987.1003.10, which should only have 20 blades. It is likely that one blade from 1987.1003.9 has been erroneously placed in the envelope for 1987.1003.10.
