N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

Can anyone help with the location and collector please? I think I've read the date correctly

J G Baker (scarcely readable as such, but his signature is characteristic)

The date is really unclear but I think is 1857 (1837 is too early for Baker).

It still looks nothing like Baker though
