content: From card: "Wooden cradle; made of single piece of wood, boat shaped, with carved handle at one end; fibre strings at sides to hold child in; remnants of fibre padding inside. Same red and black paint on surface. Apparently this is the cradle illustrated in Mason's Cradles of the American Aborigines USNM Report 1887, Fig. 7, and there erroneously called No. 2574B."
