Crow Dance DressE89089-0

Neither object name nor description in remarks as typed on the catalogue card accurately describe this object. It seems some kind of mistake was made when the card was typed, because the object name and remarks typed on card # 89089 appear to describe rattle #89088 instead. The object name and drawing in the original Anthropology ledger book for 89089 do match this object, so object name has been changed in the database record to match the original ledger book entry. - F.
