Additional information [Source - Chloe Rushovich for FHYA, 2020, transcription of KwaZulu-Natal Museum database extracts: J. Wintjes (04/12/2019): This Accession has been selected as part of the Mayr series by the Five-Hundred Year Archive. NB There is no name provided in the 'Source' column in the Accessions Register, but this item is listed adjacent to a set of AmaLala objects listed as purchased by Franz Mayr in 1912 (02016-02019), so Kathleen Mack assumed it also came from Mayr (hence her note on the Cat. Card).]
