Context (Other owners)
The Source field previously stated 'Mackintosh.Mrs.J'. It is unclear who 'Mrs. J. Mackintosh' was. The object was part of the collection of Mr Leslie Mackintosh and given to MAA by his sister, Miss Ruth Mackintosh, see the Related documents regarding collector and donor. The Accession Register actually notes the objects were gifted by 'Miss J. Mackintosh', possibly a typo. At present therefore 'Mackintosh.Mrs.J' has been removed. If they are identified, update this record accordingly.
