Context (Amendments / updates)
This series of object E 1902.168- 216 are noted in the Register as from the "*R.E. Froude (Ruddock Collection) Oct 1902", indicated it was purchased with Froude's donation to the Museum Accession Fund.
However E 1902.179-80 has 'Miss Selwyn R.1903.563' added to the Register, potentially at a later date and may suggest a different origin to the Froude noted on the record.
