The card gives two numbers: " 30" and " 26 A" . These may belong to an obsolete system of classification; in any case, their meaning is unclear. The dimensions of the box in which the item is stored are given as 25.0" x 8.5" x 8.75" . Although this item appears to be Skeat I: 451, the measurements given on one catalogue card differ from those given in the Printed Catalogue I, where the length is stated to be 18.5" . The description of the item in Skeat' s Printed Catalogue reads: " Not unlike the last" ie. not unlike Z 33753, Skeat I: 450 (a ' Katar'). This item needs to be rechecked against the Printed Catalogue I, and the box reclassified according to the modern system; A ' Pines' ...(? from the English word ' pinnace'); Collected by: Skeat.W.W in 1896; 1897
