content: This blanket has a tag sewn into it that says "?Zuni 11171" It appears that 11171 is the wrong number -- there is already another blanket marked with that number, in older ink, that better matches the (vague) description of a "small white woolen blanket". This one is larger and heavier, although not as large as other ones in this number series that are described as "large". Therefore it seems plausible that this would have been described as a "middle sized striped woolen blanket". Since 11172 is the only "middle" sized one that is missing, I have reassigned this blanket to this number for tracking purposes, although it is not certain that this is the correct number -- the records are not detailed enough to make a definitive match.
