content: White cotton boy's (?) shirt, red cloth trim, embroidered and with mirrorwork, probably from Sindh Province, Pakistan? Formerly on exhibit in NHB Exhibit Hall 8, Case 21, "A Sindhi Home" on boy mannequin. The exhibit book had listed the number for this piece as 399314, however the real 399314 is in storage. This object is unnumbered and has no identifying marks of any kind. It appears from the 1962 exhibit book photo that when the exhibit was first installed, the shirt 399314 was on the boy mannequin. At some later date, shirt 399314 was removed from exhibit and the T numbered shirt put on the mannequin in its place, however no records have been located of when this was done or what the number for this shirt might be. A slide of the exhibit case taken in 1977 shows the T number shirt on the mannequin at that time. It is possible this piece may be from, or related to, Accessions 240190, 242185, or 268922? - F.
