content: 3 parts: box with lid and small paper origami (?) inside. The origami is not marked with the number, so it is not certain that it belongs with this box. The box is marked "178265 / inside 259697", and 259697 refers to a knot with that number (not the origami). The other knots that are supposed to belong with this number are probably some of the ones that are now lumped together in catalog number E259697. E259697 originally had fewer than half as many knots as are now tracked under that number; also, many of them are not marked with the number, or the number is in a different ink than the others. All had the same original donor, but were acquired (loaned and then accessioned) at different times.
