Some of the objects in the 1998-1-1074 series, including "o" have numbers written with pencil on them. The number on 1998-1-0174h suggests that these numbers correspond to pages in an album in which they are listed for reproduction.
All the photographs with a number on the back are more likely to come from the Institute of Geographical Exploration.
