Research and responses

Note that because this particular item is numbered according to the fact that it was presented, despite it being entered with purchased objects in the Annandale special collection, there is no object with the accession number 1902.88.363. [SHD 17/4/2001]

Note too that although the Annandale entry mentions only one rice stirrer, it seems probable that this is a mistake and that there are two, 1902.41.11 and 1902.41.12. [SHD 17/4/2001]
