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 "Yurok Dance Netted Headpiece secured from Fancy at Weitchpec". It is possible that E359471 might be this artifact??
