Basket E20847, identified as Hutsnuwu Tlingit from Admiralty Island, is Swan original # 68. Ledger book indicates that Catalogue #s E20906, E20907, and E20908 are also original # 68. Accession record entry indicates the basket # E20847 contained these toy spoons, dolls, and dish (E20906 - 8), therefore all these objects are being stored together as Tlingit for now. Note that E20907 had been first catalogued as Tsimshian (probably based on Ft. Simpson identification in Anthropology ledger book of paddles E20902 and 3), and subsequently reidentified by an unknown person as possibly Makah.

The object name for catalog numbers e20736-20742 was previously recorded as: "Carving Wooden Dish Frog". This is due to the fact that the objects within this range share a single catalog card, where the description (carving wooden dish frog) only corresponds to the first object (e20734) in the series. When the catalog information was entered into the database, the object name was recorded as the same for each, despite the fact that each catalog number is representative of different, separate objects. At some point, a new catalog card was created for E20742. The other records were updated when digital images were attached to the catalog records.

Large spoon or ladle with two carved creatures on the handle, both with abalone inlay for eyes. The large bowl is carved below the handle with fin-like designs, and possibly the head of a sea-creature. On the reverse of the bowl claws are carved,possibly belonging to the second creature on the handle which has a hooked beak and a mouth.; Good

Small carved spoon which has become a rich brown colour through use. The spoon has a short handle and a concave bowl. Inside the bowl a fish-tail has been carved, on the under-side of the bowl a sculpin head has been carved.; Good

Very intricately carved handle of a spoon with a considerably smaller bowl. The handle depicts, from the tapered end towards the bowl, a small bear, and six steadily increasing in size frogs, culminating in a little frog between the ears of a bear. Perhaps the sequence represents a transformation, from a bear to a frog. On the reverse of the handle the attention to detail is apparent in the carefully carved bodies of all the creatures.The difference in size between the bowl and handle suggests the bowl was not the original, together with the possible cross-hatched beaver tail on the reverse of the bowl which does not correspond to the bear head at the start of the handle shaft. Despite the difference in size the spoon is still typical of other mountain-goat horn feast spoons of the Northwest coast (G.Crowther).; GoodCatalogue card for E 1907.562-3, notes in black ball point, 'Two spoons of black horn: the plain bowls are fastened to to curved taper handles elaborately carved in relief with totemic emblems.'

Small dark spoon with large bowl and carved figures on the handle. The lower figure is possibly humanoid, but the eyes are elongated on the reverse to form a bird' s beak.; Good

Steeply curved spoon made from mountain-sheep horn and inlaid with rectangular pieces of deeply coloured abalone shell. The pale colour of the horn suggests it has not been used extensively. The horn darkens with use.; Good
