- Drawings DR1984:0152, DR1984:0449 R/V and DR1984:0459 R/V are for furniture or unidentified buildings by J.J.P. Oud. The geographic location for these drawings therefore includes all of the countries for which Oud designed buildings and furniture: the Netherlands, Germany, Czechoslovakia (now Czech Republic), and the United States. South Africa has not been included, since it is improbable that the drawings are for Oud's project for a branch bank for the Netherlands Bank for Pretoria, South Africa.
