Display label found in a bag labelled 1927.331 A-C: 'Lamu / Arab influence'
On the reverse: 'Dolls representing women at various stages of life. Worn'

[This display label seems to have been reused as the information on front and back do not appear to be related. Since 1927.331 A-E originally shared a single record but the bag is labelled A-C, it is unclear which of the five objects were actually displayed.]
