content: This cut and folded tan paper model has twelve indentations with five quadrilateral faces (rhombuses), and twenty indentations with three quadrilateral (kite-shaped) faces. According to a mark on the model, it was derived from wedge icosahedron (e.g. the third stellation of the icosahedron) by cutting planes parallel to faces of concentric dodecahedron. Further text reads: A. Harry Wheeler (/) April 19, 1919. A paper tag reads: 397.
