• General note
  
  This drawing was once in the possession of ethnographic collector Captain A.W.F. Fuller. After his death in 1961, his widow gave the drawing to Phyllis Mander Jones in 1962. Miss Mander Jones kept the drawing till her death in 1984 (but presented the Library with a slide of it: G.N. 26 no.3), when it came to the Library with her papers. The drawing was removed from her papers in December 1996, and catalogued separately.
