content: Original Catalog Number: 2908-A Style: Unengraved Raw Material 2: Busycon Element: Complete Alteration: Weathered Manufacturing Notes: Columella cut away close to the top. Minimal surface alteration Surface Modification: Smoothed (only slight) Residue: Sediment of the dark brown variety mixed w/a bit of the yellower stuff of the previous record. Joan S. Gardner (conservator) had bagged this to keep the sediment together. Most of it is mound fill only. Comments: Fluid level marks on inner surf. Outside has area of deterioration suggesting that this sat in the mound w/ the open side facing up. This is the usual way.
