content: The illustration in the USNM Rept, 1902 pl. 66, is of the basket with this number. Since the object name on the card and in the ledger is basket, and the basket has been published with this catalog number, it was decided to assign a new catalog number to the skirt. See catalog number E430146 for the skirt previously labeled 19286. (S. Crawford, June, 2001).

content: Gen. Horace Capron

label: Notes

content: From card: "'The sword of the Tycoon.' Quote from Gen. Capron's Collection of Japanese works of Art. (In file "Japan"). 1/30/1970 Tachi mounted blade. Dated 1859. Signed 'Yasutsugu'. Made in Musashi province, probably 11th gen. Japanese Samurai Temporary Exhibit April - July, 1971." This sword/sheath has a sword-belt braid (sageo) for tying around the waist. Braid is illustrated on p. 21, top right, of _Making Kumihimo Japanese Interlaced Braids_ by Rodrick Owen; Guild of Master Craftsman Publications Ltd., U.K.; 2004. Caption with illustration of sword-belt braid: "A pattern favoured by samurai was this kikko design. Kikko, a hexagonal pattern based on the shell of the tortoise, is seen as a symbol of long life. The white braid that can be seen bound around the hilt of the sword serves to provide a good grip for the hand when holding the sword."

content: Note: In the Edo Period of Japan, the word Taikun was used as a diplomatic title designating the Shogun of Japan in relations with foreign countries, as an attempt to convey that the shogun was more important than the Japanese Emperor. A modified version of this word appears in English as "tycoon".

content: From card: "Tribal provenience unknown; considerably less in height, also lighter than the two other skin tipi covers in the museum's collection. Decorated panels encircle bottom and the top sections; decorations consist of paintings of discs in red, each approximately 8" in diameter; a buffalo in black; also an animal resembling a wolf, also in black. Very dry condition; has one considerable tear; should be treated in anthrop. lab. 5/1964 Dr. [John C.] Ewers examined and said it definitely was Blackfeet. Loaned: U.S. Dept. of the Interior June 26, 1964, returned March, 1973." In 2002, the tipi cover was laid out flat for photography. Black and white photo negative numbers 2002-1756, 2002-1758, 2002-1760, and 2002-1762, when put together, show a complete view of tipi cover. 4 x 5 color transparency negative numbers 2002-1757, 2002-1759, 2002-1761, and 2002-1763, when put together, show equivalent complete color view of tipi cover.
