Canoe Model Item Number: E63557-0 from the National Museum of Natural History
Notes
FROM CARD: "6/13/67 LOANED TO NAT'L ARCHIVES. RETURNED 8/5/68. REFER: COLLINS' MS. P. 900."Note: E63556 and 63557 were originally identified on their catalogue card as "Oomiak" paddles. However 63557 is actually a canoe model. It is a bit unclear in the Anthropology catalogue ledger book (from which the catalogue card is derived) whether 63556 and 7 were listed there as oomiaks (i.e. boats or more likely boat models), or as oomiak or boat paddles, like 63553-5.
