Collection Record

letter, 26/09/1935, H.D. Skinner to Professor R. Speight, Since returning from a northern trip, has decided to alter his study of the adzes of Murihiku by including a brief treatment of the greywacke adzes of Otago and Canterbury. Would like Speight to select six of the best adze's in collection to send to Skinner where Miss Daff will draw them. Skinner also mentions the museum received, with the John White Collection, one side of a carved box that is almost a replica of Speight's skull-box. Will publish his piece on it at the same time as Speight's box.
