    "findings": [
      "The ring wobbles the way a drawn line wobbles, the letters are of one even weight with rounded ends, and the B is wider than the shop’s classic disc. It is not that artwork at another size.",
      "It reads as the Downtown file’s construction and nothing else: narrow letters standing clear of the ring, a notched B and a notched E level with it, a capital N with its diagonal running the ordinary way, and a last letter that runs down at one thickness.",
      "Two of the fifty-eight sightings filed against the shop’s classic disc were re-hung here on 16 September 2026, because they show this drawing and not that one: a reel end card of 9 June 2026 and baby onesies of 5 July 2026."

      "Dated by a post and not by the artwork. 9 June 2026 is the earliest located sighting; the drawing may be older than that by any amount.",
      "The author is unknown, and no post located says where the artwork came from or what it is for.",
      "Read from a documentary crop of a printed garment, 204 pixels across. Every character clears its floor; none was read from an original file, because none has been located.",
      "Whether the shop means this to replace its classic disc or to sit beside it is stated nowhere located. Both are in use in 2026."

    "body": [
      "Two of the fifty-eight sightings filed against the shop’s classic disc do not show it. On 9 June 2026 a reel ends on the shop’s lockup with an orange-ringed disc in the middle of it, and on 5 July 2026 the same drawing is printed white on green baby onesies. Enlarged and set beside the sticker at one height, the difference is not in the letters’ construction but in the hand: the ring wobbles, every stroke is one even weight with a rounded end, and the B is wider.",
      "Read against the character matrix at about a hundred and fifty pixels of letter, it is the Downtown file — narrow letters standing clear of the ring, a notched B and a notched E level with it, a capital N with its diagonal running the ordinary way, an even last letter. Same construction, different drawing, which is the ordinary case here: a family says two drawings are made the same way and never that one came from the other.",
      "It is filed because the letters are redrawn. A sighting that shows the same artwork on another object is a row in the ledger, and fifty-six of the shop’s are; a sighting that shows different letters is a drawing, and gets a record, a crop and a reading. That line is the whole of why this page exists.",
      "What this does not say: when the artwork was made, who made it, or whether it is meant to replace the disc the shop has used since 2017. Both are in use in 2026, and nothing located explains either."
