content: PEALE # 301. CHIEF'S HEADDRESS WITH A CAP MADE OF DEER SKIN, AND A FRONTLET WHICH IS AN INLAID AND PAINTED MASK. THERE IS A LONG CLOTH TRAILER AT THE BACK, AND THE REMAINS OF FEATHERS, THE QUILLS AND DOWN AROUND THE TOP AND SIDES. HAS ORIGINAL PEALE TAG, ALSO WRITTEN ON MASK "NOOTKA SOUND, JL FOX". VIOLA & MARGOLIS, "MAGNIFICENT VOYAGERS," 1985, ILLUS. P. 141. THIS FRONTLET & HEADDRESS WERE RECATALOGUED WITH #72969, & A NOTATION READS, "REENTERED, SEPTEMBER 24, 1883"- THE PIECE NO LONGER HAS THIS NUMBER IN IT, BUT RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL NUMBERS. THIS RECATALOGING WAS APPARENTLY DONE AFTER THE CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION IN PHILADELPHIA. ON THE RETURN PERHAPS ITS TAG HAD BEEN LOST. EXHIBITED MAGNIFICENT VOYAGERS, NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY, 1985-86.

content: FROM CARD: "INLAID WITH ABALONE SHELL. MARKED "NOOTKA SOUND" WITH ORIGINAL NUMBER. HOWEVER, THE ORIGINAL NUMBER APPEARS TO BE 301 NOT 296. ACCORDING TO THE 'PEALE' CATALOG THIS SHOULD BE 296 [?]."

content: Provenience note, in 1841 Oregon Territory encompassed the land from Russian Alaska to Spanish California and from the Pacific to the Continental Divide. The U.S. Exploring Expedition did not go to Canada, but did reach Oregon Territory in 1841, and carried out a hydrographic survey of the Columbia River from its mouth to the Cascades, as well as doing some surveying inland.They had dealings with Hudson's Bay Company staff during that time, and it is probable that the HBC is the source of a number of the Northwest Coast artifacts collected by the expedition. The fact that this is marked "Nootka sound.", i.e. possibly Nootka?, is evidence for the HBC as the source of this mask.

content: Bilum (string bag) made of made of yarn, looped in a tight interlocking figure eight loop. The body of the bag is yellow, with a red and greenTrukai logo on it. Red text "Trukai," is looped in at the center of the bag, but the rest of the design is embroidered and therefore slightly raised. Green stylized rice tassels along the top. Below that are two red shapes that may be eyes, followed by the word 'trukai', below which is are red and green semicircular shapes, possibly representing a mouth. Yellow fringe along the side edges of the bag. A single handle, yellow with three sets of green and red stripes. On both sides, there is a slight discoloration near the top of the body of the bag. Donor notes: Cost, 50 kina. "Since the 1970s Trukai has been a major agriculture company in Papua New Guinea. It is best known for its rice, and the bilum invokes the company's distinct logo. Made by Jessica Taro (b. ca. 1980; Lari Clan, Talapiko village of Pangia region of Southern Highlands). For eight years [previous to 2011] Jessica has been making and selling bilums in Port Moresby's Boroko market. This market is known for its bilums and other crafts and is visited by resident expatriates, tourists and weather Papua New Guineans. Jessica lives in the settlement Morata #2, and uses the funds for “subsistence”. She obtains the wool yarn from the wholestore SVS (Super Value Stores) of which there are four branches in Port Moresby. Founded by a Papua New Guinean in Mount Hagen in 1986, by 2011 SVS had expanded into the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Fiji and Tonga. Jessica was keenly aware of what sold and clearly made this bilum in an attempt to make a quick sale. These advertising bilums or bilums that advertise commodities are very popular within Papua New Guinea but their demand raises and falls with the particular brand."
