- Comment:
- 19937" written in pencil next to cat. number L-19932 and arrow drawn from cat. number to L-19937 in ledger; "19932" written in pencil next to cat. number L-19937 and arrow drawn from cat. number to L-19932 in ledger. Cat. number confusion resolved at curatorial level by registrar. Ledger entry L-19932 (actually L-19937) red-lined with "Exch." written above cat. number in light red pen and crossed out in darker red pen. Ledger remarks: "L-19937 Exchanged with Univ. of New Mexico August 1961" written in light red pen and crossed out in darker red pen; "deleted 2/22/74" and "Exch. w/ Univ. of New Mex 8-'61" written in darker red pen. No piece count in ledger; piece count based on plural description. "Transitional" written in "Tribe" column in ledger. "Found" written in next to cat. number in ledger, refers to handwritten note in the front of the first volume of the Lillard ledger. The note reads: "Started checking specimens present in collection at U.C.M.A. on 3/8/50. Those present are marked "found" in back of catalogue number. W. Pendry".
