Abstract
Description
This is a fabric ephemera object encased in a plastic snap enclosure, roughly 2 inches x 1.75 inches, received as a new acquisition to UC Libraries in 2019. The plastic enclosure is labeled as “NGC™ / CAC ™ – Collectibles Authentication Guarantee ™.” The plastic encased object was digitized and housed in a sink mat system within a corrugated Talas Heritage Archival Storage clamshell for protection as well as to prevent it from becoming lost due to its small size. The fabric, yellowed with age and use, is straight on three sides but jagged on the left edge.
