While you're running the clean-up script to fix all the apostrophes, you might also prefer the neater (and warning-free) {{PD-old-70-1923}} rather than {{PD-US}}{{PD-old}} -- though in fact, for these images of 3D objects, the license needed is surely {{Cc-zero}} or something similar, because there needs to be some release of the photographer's copyright.
I agree about the hyphen -- really, it could use an extra space either side of the hyphen, to more clearly separate the object short name from the museum identifier.

With regard to the hyphen, I tried padding the fields with a space, but the padding gets trimmed again by GWT. Unfortunate, particularly as including renaming as part of automated house-keeping is not very good practice, even for new uploads.
Based on a separate discussion with David H., I may defer this run until GWT can allow a custom template option; hopefully in the coming week. Although I would like to use the default Artwork template, these oddities of automated formatting (mandated creator template, forced filename structure, html codes rather than characters) are creating a programming burden on my volunteer time that it would be sensible to avoid.
