Basket - Notes from F.M. Gilham to Harry George .

The image showcases a beautifully woven basket with a spiral "Bu-she-mia" design, meticulously crafted with dark geometric patterns that stand out against a lighter background. The basket is displayed in a slightly sideways angle to highlight its depth and curvature. Below the image, typewritten text identifies the piece as "Plate 21" on "Page 35," featuring two size options: a 10-inch diameter version priced at $18.00 and a 10½-inch version for the same price, both described as 7 inches deep. Handwritten notes overlaying the text include numerical annotations and a crossed-out price implying a discount or sale, with a final price of 10.50 encircled in black, suggestive of a catalog or auction listing. The text and imagery together present the basket as both an artistic and commercial item, embodying cultural craftsmanship and historical relevance.
