Journal of the Académie Internationale De La Pipe, 2019. https://www.academia.edu/49329798/Eastern_Ojibwa_Wooden_Pipes?email_work_card=view-paper . Feest notes about this pipe that the provenience is listed as Rhode Island, apparently because the father of George Gibbs had been born in Rhode Island. "This attribution has been patiently accepted in the literature ... , although the practice of placing the opening in the back rather than in the head of an effigy bowl is a hallmark of pipes attributed, probably correctly, to the Wyandot."
