Comment:
2-14641 is written on basket, which is a wrong number. This basket is the "horned animal" basket mentioned in loan file from S1967-1968 #25 to UC Riverside. The number mentioned there is incorrect 1-51567, should have been 1-51557. Currently still has TB-95 labels until relabeling can occur..
