Behind the record

Where it came from

There is no original to identify: this spread through many separate posts at once rather than from a first one. Where it came from is recorded here, and what is shown is one example.

Nothing here is claimed to be the first version of this, because research established there was not one — it appeared in many places at once.

Not established. This index only names a creator where the evidence supports it.
