Wait, look at the mirrored text: is it printed on this page (e.g. on translucent paper, scanned from the wrong side)? Yes, tissue guards often have the text printed on one side, and if scanned from the back, it appears reversed! Or it's a blank verso of a plate page, with heavy show-through/ghosting from the recto! Wait, instructions say: "Transcribe this scanned page of a scholarly book exactly as printed, in reading order." If the page contains only show-through/bleed-through or is a blank page, what should be transcribed? Wait, if it's mirrored text showing through, is it printed text on this page? No, look at the very top: `PLATE LXXII` is faintly embossed or printed on the plate itself! Wait, let's look at the text: It is definitely mirror-image (offset or show-through from facing page). Wait, could this be a tissue paper bound facing Plate LXXII, and the scanner scanned the wrong side of the tissue? If it's the wrong side of a tissue paper, everything is reversed. But transcription instructions say: "Transcribe this scanned page of a scholarly book exactly as printed".
