Imbricated Coiled Basket Item Number: E360925-0 from the National Museum of Natural History
Notes
From card: "Vee shaped designs in black and chocolate color."This basket has an old tag with it which says: "Mrs. Ben Philips, Julia Abraham's daughter - 1907 The Coburns AZMM". It is unclear if Mrs. Philips would be the maker of the basket or a former owner. The back of this tag has the number 36. See also related object E360926, which has a similar tag, but has been identified as Thompson River Salish or Southern Puget Sound, Cowlitz style? See also E360330 which has a label which also references Coburn's.
