Catching Fingers On Google Book Search: Hand Scans

I spotted over at Philipp that Google seems to be manually scanning books for the Google Book Search service by hand. Don't believe me? Check out the first page of The Trial and Death of Socrates. Yea, there is a hand there. Is it Matt Cutts's hand? Chris Boggs thinks so (kidding). Very nice find Dan Cohen.
