content: Victor Evans purchased a number of artifacts from dealer Grace Nicholson in 1919. See copy of Evans correspondence with Nicholson, dated June 19, 1919, filed in the Anthropology Collections Lab accession file; original of correspondence is part of the Grace Nicholson Papers and Addenda, The Huntington Library, San Marino, California; see online finding aid https://oac.cdlib.org/findaid/ark:/13030/tf787005cq/ . One of the artifacts on the list in the correspondence is a "Woodpecker Roll Karok [$]85.00". It is possible that E358665 might be this artifact?? See Plate 4b, p. 141 in Goldschmidt, Walter R. and Harold E. Driver. "The Hupa White Deerskin Dance" in UC Publications in American Archaeology and Ethnology, Vol. 35, No. 8 (1940), where headdresses like E358665 are called "woodpecker rolls" used in the Jump Dance.
