From card for E23523-46: "Dec 20, 1972, Bill Holm says that these are definitely Haida."Cultural ID for paddles E23523 - 23546 is somewhat in question. They were catalogued as Clallam, Bill Holm has identified them as Haida, but James Swan in correspondence in the accession file references 24 Bella Bella paddles.

From card: "Not included in Swan inventory"

LEDGER AND CATALOG CARD SAY SENT TO REV. F.W. GALPIN, HADDON, ENGLAND. 1902.

Mask has movable lower jaw.Note that catalog ledger book lists this as a "wolf's head" and the catalog card says this is a deer (source of this change/discrepancy is unknown - transcription error?). In 2019, Gwaai and Jaalen Edenshaw noted that the sharp teeth indicate that it is probably not a deer, and the long whiskers made from feather shafts make it look more like a mouse or shrew.
