Description, scan 2: A blurred grey photograph of a single elongated object. Its upper end is dark and mottled and tapers to a point, while its paler lower part narrows toward the base. The photograph sits on a pale card with handwriting along the lower edge, and surface detail and material cannot be made out clearly.
Description, scan 3: A blurred grey photograph of an irregular, elongated fragment with a flattened top edge and a tapering lower end. Darker and lighter patches suggest uneven, broken surfaces. The print is mounted on a pale card with a narrow border, and the object sits against a plain light ground.
Description, scan 4: A small, irregularly shaped piece shown in soft grey tones on a pale grey card with a pointed lower end. Its surface is mottled with darker patches, and its broken outline is uneven. The card sits on a cream backing with handwritten marks above and below, and the faint image makes the material and form hard to confirm.
Description, scan 5: A small, pointed, leaf-shaped object is shown in grey tones on a pale card mount, with a lighter area along its lower edge. The outline is soft and the surface looks mottled, so the material and any decoration cannot be made out. Pencil marks are visible at the top edge of the card border.
Description, scan 6: A small print, cut to an irregular pointed outline, is mounted on a pale card. It shows pale and dark patches forming several fragmentary shapes on a light grey ground, too blurred to make out their material or form clearly. Pencilled handwritten notes appear along the top edge of the card.
Description, scan 7: A cut-out print of a small, irregular dark grey object is mounted on a pale grey card over a cream background. The object is soft-edged and blurred, with a lighter area beneath it and a small dark shape below that. Handwriting in pencil runs along the bottom edge of the card and is partly cut off.
