Description

Graham Rowley notebook labelled "Eskimo Collections I".
Section headed "Portland Creek, St. Barbe Dist. Newfoundland", it comprises of a list of artefacts, with sketches, material, brief description and what appear to be accession numbers, but not MAA form.
Notes on Diamond Jenness' typologies of Dorset harpoons and stone implements, broken down by type, with sketches and charts of where they have been found. It is unclear whether these sketches and charts include objects that Rowley found or worked with, or whether they are just notes directly from Jenness' article. [This might refer to D. Jenness' publication: Volume XVI, Material Culture of the Copper Eskimo, 1946.]
Also has sketches and information on specimens in H.B.C. Museum, Winnipeg and the Ottawa Museum.
