Context (Found together / assemblage)
He identifies it as being from the Ridgeway Collection, in which case it is very likely to be the 'missing' 1927.697. If Z 14968 and 1927.697 are the same object, then it seems at some stage it has become disassociated from an 'about 1" chain'. Ridgeway has therefore been tentatively added to the Source field and 1927.697 to the MAA Nos field, but the records have not been amalgamated until more research has been done.
