This item has two separate catalogue cards. One gives the source as Haddon and the other card gives the source as Landtman. However, according to the packing list of the box the object is part of the Landtman collection. This series of numbers ie. 1912.79 is also associated with the Landtman collection. There is also a slight difference in provenance between the cards and the packing list.
