Description

Three pen drawings on separate pale cards show one scarab seal. On the left is the back of the scarab, with a rounded body marked by lines and a number label below it. At top right is a side view with a rounded top and two horizontal lines along the base, and at bottom right is the flat base, an oval with a rim that holds an upright oval frame with signs and hatched shapes beside it.
