Doctor's Headdress Item Number: E274641-0 from the National Museum of Natural History
Notes
Catalog card gives cat # as "274641 and [274]556" and the two objects are tied together with old string (the string is obviously not original to the object -- probably applied at the museum). However, it is not clear how these two objects are related, if at all. 274556 is a "part of mask".
