Context (Amendments / updates)
This object is not marked with a MAN number. However, it has been given the same Z number as was given to the 'Chez Pourret' material and is also marked with the 'Z' (Greek letter 'zeta') which is found on the rest of the Z 25764 series. The bag in which is was found read: 'Z. 25764 Chez Pourret. Is this the missing 54490?' and someone had later added 'YES'.
