THREE MINK WRAP

Entry/Object ID

99.26.5.1

Description

Color: Brown A dark brown mink stole, consisting of three animals secured together by sewing two of the animals' mouths to the back of the mink next to them and also by a single piece of brown string. In the case of one animal, the thread at the mouth is destroyed, so that connection is not established. The animals fur, legs and paws, and heads are intact, though the eyes are probably celluloid. On the underside of the middle animal is a black silk label reading "Bullock's / Los Angeles." Although it cannot be determined from an investigation of the stole if there is any pest infestation, there seems to be no other damage, than the loosening of the aforementioned stole and the items is in otherwise good condition.
