Context (Amendments / updates)
The Roscoe Collection catalogued in 1920 was given numbers 1920.1 - 1920.480. These are not Accession Register numbers, and conflict with numbers allocated to other artefacts accessioned in 1920. They do not appear under any other number in any Accession Register and the only documentation for them is their catalogue cards. In 2001 they were given the temporary suffix ‘/Roscoe’ to distinguish them. This has now been replaced with the prefix ‘ROS’.
