Preparation for generation assignment

Getting a list of "first generation" sales by the Custodian is easy; we just find titles on which the Custodian (owner #777) is the seller. There are 46. But I also took a good look through every mention of the Custodian, and found a whole pile of interesting, puzzling and anomalous titles which I've listed out with explanations for JS-R and SF to take a look at. Some look like they're basically Custodian sales mediated through third-party law firms; in other cases, Japanese owners actually acquire property somehow, and this is then very rapidly disposed of by the Custodian or by proxies. Interesting stuff.
