Research and responses

The delivery catalogue entry is a little confusing. No other entries have two fraction numbers and only one [9294] is given in the accession book. 12191 entries are listed in green book pages 172 - 183. There are no objects with the fraction number 9294 in the green book. If my theory about fraction numbers is correct [see Introduction to the Lt-Genl PR catalogue] then objects with this number should have associated dates of between March and May 1879 [AP Leverhulme project on founding collection 1995-1998]
