notes: | There are indications on the left edge of the sheet that it was larger and folded over, probably forming a folder that opened like a book, with the specimens on the inside right side. There is also a faint mirror image, at the top of the sheet above the specimens, of the writing on the large label at the bottom of the sheet. This writing must therefore have been on the top inside of the left side of the folder in order to form the mirror image on the right side above the specimens. The left side of the folded sheet was clearly removed, and the label cut out of it and stuck below the specimens. This is probably true of all sheets in this style. |
