Notes

88; CERAMIC OWL WATER JUG, ZUNI. Identified by Dwight Lanmon, 2007, as a Zuni Polychrome owl, ca. 1880.

Has old handwritten tag "Water jug - made of pottery by the Zuni Indians", bearing printed # 88.

One possible catalogue number for this might be E361894 in the Victor Justice Evans collection, though that object is listed as Zia, not Zuni, on its catalogue card.
