There are, in some cases, "large corrections" and "small corrections" and references to the 'Notice to Mariners' updates. John 'Chartman' Cloud will be happy to embellish.

I was wondering about the entries often seen in the left lower margins, often with a format such as "43-1/3; 45-12/9", etc. I gather someone on this list knows what those printed numbers mean, so I thought I'd ask. Most of the variants I'm seeing are not currently in WorldCat, but even for similar charts that are, those marginal numbers are not often listed Thanks in advance for any help.. Joel Kovarsky
