Collector's Notes
One concha affixed with a paper tag inscribed: Present from Mrs. Wagner about 1921 / Rare beaten out of all spoons Navaho
The pin accompanied by a paper tag inscribed: Domingo Trading Post 1922?; and a note inscribed: June 1981 I am puzzled about this squaw pin. I remember it but I think I must have returned it to Roy long ago as I do not recall seeing it for many years. Perhaps he put it away in some other box and that it will show up. I hope so. I also remember a pair of earrings which I hope will show up. These I never actually wore as they were too heavy for my ears. LWR.
