Description, scan 2
A long, narrow corroded iron object runs down the centre of a pale mounted photograph, its surface pitted and crusted with rust. Below it sits a shorter, irregular fragment with a rough, flaky surface on the same plain backdrop. A handwritten label is at the lower left edge of the card and a small number stamp at the lower right.
