[Source - Nessa Leibhammer for FHYA, 2017: The two boxes containing Brenthurst catalogue cards compiled by Margret Carey for Jonathan Lowen, were kept by Nessa Leibhammer in her office during her time as curator at the JAG. The entire southern African Traditional Collection including Brenthurst has been entered into the City of Johannesburg Star database, a digital record keeping system without images, set up in the early 2000's. In 2015 SAHRIS funded the digitisation of the entire southern African Traditional Collection including Brenthurst. This is now publicly available via their website http://www.sahra.org.za/sahris/]
