The scan is low resolution, so more figures are left blank than in later volumes; each blank is explained in a transcriber's note. Advertisements, the contents and the Index were skipped. The Who's Who, the Imperial family and the art and pottery sketches are on the Who's Who & Directories page; the Diary of 1908-9 is on the Chronologies page. Treaty texts and law articles are not transcribed.
Note: In the early books added to this website, cells that are marked blank may be blank because the original was blank, or because the large language model extracting the table had difficulty in reading the cell. Read the transcription notes for each table and check the original source when in doubt.
