content: Square silk scarf, collected by a friend of the donor in the mid 1970's. Cream-colored background, orange border. Foreground is an array of New Guinean artifacts in orange, yellow, and brown. Dr. Adrienne Kaeppler, Curator of Oceanian Ethnology, says that the captions next to each artifact correctly identify them. These include a Trobriand Island war club, a wooden drum, a Sepik mask and shield, an ancestor mask, combs, an Asmat shield and spear, a flute mouthpiece, and a Huon Gulf tapa mask. Made for sale to tourists in Papua New Guinea.
