See this 2015 interview with artist Jay Fleck: https://blog.threadless.com/artist-shop-spotlight-jay-fleck/ : "[Interviewer Shawn Gauthier:] Your work has such a whimsical, lighthearted quality to it. How did this particular style come to be? [Jay Fleck:] When I first started, I wasn't at all into cutesiness or whimsy. I worked mostly with simple shapes and geometric animals, and wasn't interested in characters and personality. As time passed, I became influenced by what other artists were doing. I'd see things that were cute and they'd bring a smile to my face, and I thought, why not? I started drawing animals in a more cartoony style; I think one of my first attempts was a design called "Hi!". I still had to give it some edge; it's a penguin about to be eaten by shark. I wasn't quite ready for full-on cute just yet." The case is green thermoplastic polymer with a matte black interior. A stylized graphic of a shark, with jaws open, about to devour a penguin, is printed on the back in dark green yellow red and orange. Impressed on the interior is the number 1P7P/8P. Portals created in the case provide access to phone buttons and plugs.

content: FROM CARD: "INVENTORIED 1975."

content: Anthropology catalogue ledger book identifies E1799 and E1800 as from Utah and list their culture using the derogatory/offensive name of "Digger Indians". "Digger Indians" was a term that came to be indiscriminately applied to a number of different indigenous people in the West/Northwest. With that said, there are some potential clues on its meaning for E1799 and E1800 in Beckwith, E. G., John Torrey, and A. Gray. 1854. Report of Explorations for a Route for the Pacific Railroad, on the Line of the Forty-First Parallel of North Latitude, 1854 . One possibility for E1799/E1800 might be Goshute/Gosiute? See Murphy, Robert F., and Yolanda Murphy. The Project Gutenberg eBook of Shoshone-Bannock Subsistence And Society, Release Date: February 15, 2012 [EBook #38884]. https://www.gutenberg.org/files/38884/38884-h/38884-h.htm: "In 1854 Lieutenant E. G. Beckwith explored the route of the forty-first parallel in search of a possible railroad route and encountered Gosiute [Goshute], Western Shoshone, and Northern Paiute Indians. He referred to all of them as "Diggers," and he apparently used this term generically for all the ... horseless Indians between Salt Lake City and the Sierra Nevada Mountains. At Deep Creek, in Utah, he "found a band of twenty Shoshonee Indians encamped, besides women and children. They are mounted, and contrast strikingly with their Goshoot [Goshute] neighbors (Diggers) ..." (Beckwith, 1855, p. 25). Beckwith classed only mounted Indians as Shoshone: in Butte Valley, Nevada, the inhabitants of a "Digger wick-e-up" fled from the party, "taking us for Shoshonees" (p. 26). After leaving Western Shoshone territory [in the "country south of the Humboldt River", Nevada] he spoke of "Digger Indians, who call themselves Pah-Utah, however" (p. 34)."

THE CASE IS PART OF A COLLECTION MADE BY ALBERT GATSCHET, ACC. 26843. ALL THE ITEMS WITHIN THIS ACCESSION, EXCEPT TWO, WERE OBTAINED FROM THE "PONCA, SIOUX," ACCORDING TO THE PROCESSING LAB MUSEUM CATALOG LEDGER. THE TERM 'SIOUX' UNDOUBTEDLY REFERS TO THE LINGUISTIC STOCK OF WHICH THE PONCA ARE A PART. THE MATCH CASE SHOULD THEREFORE BE CONSIDERED PONCA, AND STORED ACCORDINGLY. - LEE MILLER 1-17-1985. ... PROVENIENCE NOTE: PROVENIENCE OF "OKLAHOMA" IS TAKEN FROM THE ACCESSION CARD.
