« Tobacco pouches, particularly the roll-up variety, were frequently closed with the aid of fasteners which also served as pipe cleaners. There are 13 of these in the Speck collection and they are quite similar, consisting of a narrow piece of bone tapered or pointed at one end with a suspension hole at the other. Usually the neck constricts and there is a series of notches around the suspension hole. Another characteristic is parallel or crossed incised lines below the suspension hole. » Vanstone, James W.

« Two pouches were collected among the Natasquan band. » Vanstone, James W. "The Speck Collection of Montagnais Material Culture from the Lower St. Lawrence Drainage, Quebec." Fieldiana.

« Two pouches were collected among the Natasquan band. One, in very poor condition, is made from the skin of a loon's neck sewn on a piece of multicolored cotton cloth. The opening is edged with yellow cotton tape, and the sides and flap with purple tape. On the flap is a small, stylized floral design in blue beads. On the sides, flap, and opening are small loops of red, white, blue, and pink beads (fig. 22e). » Vanstone, James W.
