content: The parts of the smoking set now called #E21589 were originally catalogued as three separate numbers - 21587, 21588, and 21589, for the base of the piece, the two side "boats" or canoe-shaped containers for matches and ashes, and the central cup for cigars. However, as the parts are a set and are now all glued together to form one artifact, the piece is now called #21589 only. - S. Crawford and F. Pickering 1-5-2006
