Context (CMS Context)
Catalogue card E 1891.146 reads [handwritten in black ink:] ‘D. * H.M. Brunel, Esq. R.1891.72, (2).’ The 1 in 1891 has been altered with black ballpoint to look like a 2. This appears to be a mistake.
The Annual Report for 1891, p.3 ‘In those cases in which the objects have not been presented directly, but have been purchased with money subscribed to the Museum Accession Fund, an asterisk is prefixed to the name of the donor.’
