Description

A long, flat, dark brown corroded iron object lies horizontally across a pale grey background. Its surface is crusted with pale patches of corrosion, its left end is broken and irregular, and its right end narrows to a ragged point. A pale card border surrounds the print, with a number label in the lower right corner and handwriting along the bottom edge.
