Basket Of Chilkat Inds.E1865-0
FROM CARD: "ILLUS. IN USNM AR, 1888; PL. 36, FIG. 184; P.314." Identified in publication cited above as twined wallet (i.e. bag), Chilkat Indians, Alaska, from W. F. (William Fraser)Tolmie. Note that Tolmie's last name is mistranscribed on catalogue card as Tolnie. Anthropology catalogue ledger book lists both Tolmie's and George Suckley's names as source of this object but also identifies this object as probably part of George Suckley accession # 126 for the year 1859, so Tolmie may be the collector who Suckley acquired it from, probably circa 1855 in Washington Territory?
