Description

Item does not seem to match the information on Basketry Card. There are notably no handles present, nor any obvious bottom pieces. Perhaps handles have been seperated and are unnumbered in another drawer. Item appears to be cedar bark and limb twined basket fragment with rim. Basketry Card:
