Context (CMS Context)
The original label (now glued to the catalogue card) indicates that this object was originally accessioned as E 1910.166, but the entry in MAA's accession register was crossed off, alongside many others also from the Drew Collection. The entry in the Z register give the object's original number as E 1910.156, which is incorrect.
