Stone Lamp Item Number: E16395-0 from the National Museum of Natural History
Notes
FROM CARD: "16395-6. NOS. 16395-6: ILLUS. IN USNM REPT, 1896; PL. 23, FIGS. 4,5; P. 1056."There appears to be some kind of cataloguing error with this object. Ledger book and catalogue card call this Sitka, however it was published in USNM Annual Report for 1896 as Aleutian Islands, and original list in accession record also identifies it that way, with same provenance as toy lamp A16061. See Dall's field catalogue, filed under Accession No. 3258, entry under # 893.
